When do we really learn good conversation skills? Well, we don’t.

"When do we really learn good conversation skills? Well, we don’t. We’re just kind of expected to pick them up…" says Dale Carnegie We get to overcome it step-by-step due to exposure, experience and expertise. The below is part of that to overcome it. Long way to go & lot to learn. Keep learning!!


Here are 7 simple and effective ways to be a smooth talker. Here they are:
1. Talk slowly
Typically, good talkers don’t rush into a conversation. They take their time when they reflect on something and when they say it out loud. They act as if they have all the time in the world. This makes them come off as centered and collected. Model this way of talking and you will create the same effect.
2. Hold more eye contact
Most people keep eye contact about 2/3 of the time or less when they talk. In my experience, it’s a very good idea to hold eye contact just a bit more than that. This will convey confidence and interest in interacting with them.
3. Notice the details
People with good conversation skills tend to notice the kind of things that the average person doesn’t notice, and to bring such details into the conversation. They may notice and point out an interesting ring on the other person’s hand, a certain foreign accent, or a certain voice tone they use when saying a name. Thus, such individuals impress people in a very elegant manner.
4. Give unique compliments
Anybody can pay a generic compliment to try and get another person’s appreciation. Charismatic people on the other hand are able to really pay attention to others, to look beyond the facade and thus, pay unique compliments. Do the same and besides wooing others, you may even help them find out things about themselves they didn’t know.
5. Express your emotions
It’s very rare to meet a person who is comfortable talking about their emotions and how certain things make them feel, especially with strangers. Yet this way of talking is a real virtue. Don’t just present the facts, you’re not a newspaper. Express your feelings about those facts. Keep in mind that it is at the emotional level that people connect best.
6. Offer interesting insights
Anybody can talk about the news or express basic opinions. But good talkers can frequently tell you things you didn’t know and that you’ll find fascinating. This is why it’s good to have knowledge into fields such as psychology or sociology, and bring such knowledge out at the right moments in a conversation.
7. Use the best words
The ability to talk smoothly has a lot to do with choosing the precise words to convey your precise feelings or thoughts. Constantly develop your vocabulary and practice communicating as accurately as possible. It will help you develop a way with words and allow you to express yourself more easily.

Its all how you plan it!! Benefits of Home Gym 1. Home gyms can save time.  Daily exercise at a gym often requires a significant investment of time. In addition to the time spent on the workout, you’ll have to drive to and from the gym.  A  home gym can save you a significant amount of time commuting to the gym. You also won’t have to spend any time waiting to use gym equipment. You can use this extra time to exercise longer or free up your day.   2. Home gyms can help avoid distractions.  Commercial gyms come with a wide range of distractions. There are other people that may try to talk to you as you exercise, and it may be difficult to focus with all of the noise. With a home gym, you can stay focused on your workout by eliminating distractions. There won’t be anyone around to talk to you between sets, and you won’t be distracted by the noise of weight clanging or getting dropped on the floor.   3. Home gyms can save money.  Although gym memberships may seem like a go
