"10 Ways to Develop Incredible Charisma (Yet Still Be Yourself)"
🧵 THREAD TIME: 👇
Thankfully, charisma isn’t necessarily something you’re born with.
Like most skills, it is something you can develop through daily practice.
Here are ways you can be more charismatic:
1. Manage your nerves.
When charismatic people speak, you notice they don’t seem to be nervous. Managing nerves isn’t easy, but there are some basic tips to make sure you come across with confidence and charisma.
For instance, use props when you speak to take the pressure off yourself from having to always come up with the right words.
Also, repeat the mantra, This opportunity is bigger than me.
2. Listen with intent.
When most people think of charismatic people, they think of their ability to talk or interact with others.
A charismatic person is someone who listens with intent and makes you feel as if your thoughts are valued.
3. Be relatable.
Make your conversations relatable to those you’re speaking with.
Use mirroring techniques such as using the same words and terminology the other person uses, and try to find the common ground with everyone you talk to by asking the right kind of questions.
4. Give more than you take.
Charismatic people enhance and enrich the lives of those around them.
When you genuinely offer to help someone else, they will be particularly fond of you.
Give more than you take and you will be well on your way to becoming charismatic.
5. Have a sense of humor.
Humor, humor, humor.
If you have the confidence to try (and succeed) making the other person laugh, you have them in your pocket.
Funny and charismatic go hand-in-hand since the beginning of time.
6. Remember names.
Remembering a person’s name can get his or her attention in an instant. It makes them feel important and helps you become more likable.
A person’s name is the sweetest sound in the world to that person.
7. Have genuine interest.
charismatic ppl are genuinely interested in others. The key is to actively show interest in the other person when you engage in a conversation.
Listen carefully to what they have to say before asking questions that invite more depth & information.
8. Ask more questions.
People like to talk about themselves. Therefore, if you ask more and actively listen more, you will be far more charismatic.
Also, expand your vocabulary with more vibrant words.
9. Always put your stuff away.
Don't check your phone.
Don't glance at your monitor.
Don't focus on anything else, even for a moment.
You can never connect with others if you're busy connecting with your stuff, too.
10. Don't act self-important …
The only people who are impressed by your stuffy, pretentious, self-important persona are other stuffy, pretentious, self-important people.
The rest of us aren't impressed. We're irritated, put off, and uncomfortable.

"10 Different Ways to Practice Mindfulness In Our Daily Life"
THREAD TIME: 👇
In this fast-moving external world, we have lost our inner connection.
Every day is a struggle. You are always running after something. But have you ever taken a simple walk in your inner kingdom?
This is the time to learning how to practice mindfulness.
1. Live in the Moment
Enjoy ur present without connecting the events with your past & future.
U don’t have to worry about anything because things unfold naturally. Embrace the freshness of this moment.
Mindfulness means being aware of what is happening in the present moment.
While it may not seem so, if you are low in self-confidence, I strongly believe that you can do things to increase your self-confidence.
Here are some excellent ways to start:
1. Groom yourself.
This seems like such an obvious one, but it’s amazing how much of a difference a shower and a shave can make in your feelings of self-confidence and for your self-image.
Reaching your greatest potential doesn’t require u to work harder by adding desirable habits to ur already busy life.
Instead, u can work smarter by eliminating the routines that erode effectiveness.
Here are the 20 things mentally strong people don’t do:
1. Dwelling On The Past
Mentally strong individuals focus on the present moment and on the near future.
They understand that the past is out of our control and the far future is about as predictable as the weather this winter.
