How to Be Charming & Charismatic

leogal_1428 · Post time 3-6-2008 04:26 PM

Have you ever noticed how some people captivate everyone they speak to? No matter what they look like or how much money they have, they can walk into a room and instantly be the center of attention. When they leave, people think highly of them and want to emulate them. That抯 charisma, a sort of magnetism that inspires confidence and adoration.Like beauty, luck, and social position, charisma can open many doors in life. Unlike these other qualities, anyone can become more charismatic.

Improve your posture. Good posture will give the impression of self confidence (even if you don抰 feel that way on the inside). While walking, maintain a relaxed yet definitive upright posture: spine long, shoulders back, head level with the ground. This may feel awkward or overpowering to you when you first practice it, but keep trying.
Relax the muscles in your face to the point where you have a natural, pleasant expression permanently engraved there. Face the world and show everyone you抮e not afraid.
Make a connection. When your eyes come in contact with another person抯, nod and smile subtly with a subdued joy shining forth. Don抰 worry about the other person抯 reaction and don抰 overdo it.
Remember people抯 names when you meet them for the first time. This takes an enormous amount of effort for most people. Repeat the person抯 name when stating your name to that person will help you to remember it better. For example: 揌i Jack, I抦 Wendy.

By being totally loving all trhe time, you'll be completetly charming and charismatic.

The inner quality, not outer action. You see people do nice thing because they crave for love or approval from others, and most of the time their 'apparent nicenest' backfired, or not appreciated. And still you see some other person, by doing nothing you can't help but love them for who they are.

Religious people? It's really hard to find religious people without hate. Religious authority are even more full of hatred.

Most don't love, they just hate, hate, hate. Damn this one, damn that one. As long as your belief are different than them you'll be damned. They're all the same.

Mormon and Jehovah witness are not that popular in Malaysia.

communication skill..verbal and non- verbal

karisma? itu datang in nature, action speaks louder than words

bagi aku kena tengok majlis juga

org yg handal di parti birthday mungkin jadi tikus sewaktu training

One can always try to practice all the above tips but don't you think that to be a charming and charismatic person, one has to be naturally gifted with such elements?

positive mind equals to positive projection of oneself, doesn't take too much to figure that out, you can't be positive if you only thinks about the negativity of things surrounding you
