7 Ways to Make a Conversation With Anyone | Malavika Varadan | TEDxBITSPilaniDubai

A hi from an introvert to all introverts:)

After watching this I started a conversation with an stranger and he is still taking to me, now I am searching for how to stop the conversation😅😂

1. Just do it 2. Skip small talk, ask personal questions 3. There is no room for negativity, instead find the things in common 4. Give a honest unique compliment 5. Ask for a simple opinion 6. Be present, eye-contact 7. Remember their details (Name/place ...)

“ppl forget what you do, what you say but never forget what you make them feel” that’s a such lesson

I was a very social child, I was pretty popular at school too because I could easily hold a conversation with anyone and got along with everyone. As I got older I sort of lost that social ability. I'm not anti social, I can talk to people. Indeed I find it easier talking to strangers than some family members! But I'm working on getting my old social skills back and thankfully I succeeded. How? The only way I can explain it is: Learn not to care, learn not to be nervous, learn not to be afraid of silences and just let conversations flow naturally. Humans are social creatures, just let it come naturally. You are what you imagine yourself to be, so imagine yourself as social and talkative.

She seems sincerely passionate about being there on the stage. She's not there just for the money. she wants to genuinely inspire people and share her ideas to others. That is beautiful. I really respect that. I'am now offically a fan of her.

I took the advice and said HI to someone with a huge smile on my face. She got a shock because i said it so loud, then just looked without responding, so i kept smiling as hard as i could and kept staring at her. She said she would call the police

I''ll save you 15 minutes. This is what contained in this video: 1.Say hello, 2.Ask personal questions, 3.Find commonalities,, 4.Give unique compliments, 5.ask for simple opinions, 6.Pay attention(Be in the moment), 7.Remember names.

That was so good and motivational when se said "what starts with Hello and ends up with marriage proposal."😂☺

it's not complicate to talk with stranger it's complicate to talk AGAIN with the same stranger🤣

Is it weird that I'm more comfortable with talking to strangers than the people I know? I just feel their judgment won't affect me at all and therefore I can be myself around them since there is a very low probability of us meeting again.

Her - Eye contact is where all the magic happens. Me - eyes contact is where all the awkwardness starts 😂

What I love about this is that she didn't target an audience with the mindset that they were insufficient in some way to explain their difficulties communicating with strangers. She just focused on teaching how to converse from the perspective of making it better no matter what your background. That demonstrates a high level of emotional intelligence.

Plot twist she walks off stage and never talks to anyone that whole day

Things I learnt from this:- 1. Just ask questions what you want. What's the worst thing can happen? 2. Skip small talk and ask personal questions (you will be surprised how much people are willing to share if you ask them) 3. Find the "me too"s 4. Give a compliment (mostly on what thinks they give efforts in for example makeup) 5. Listen to their answers and add your opinion or thoughts about it. 6. Make eye contact (see one eye at a time and move the the other afterwards) 7. After they say their name say their name (for example - hi paul!)

That line "conversation can make war, conversation can make peace" respect mam❤❤🇧🇩
