Communication
• Conversation is indeed the most easily teachable of all arts. All you need to do in order to
become a good conversationalist is to find a subject that interests you and your listeners.
There are, for example, numberless hobbies to talk about. But the important thing is
that you must talk about other fellow’s hobby rather than yours’. Talk to your friends
about the things that interest them, and you will get a reputation for good fellowship,
and a brilliant mind. There is nothing that pleases people so much as your interest in
their interest.
• It is just as important to know what subjects to avoid and what subjects to select for
good conversation. If you don’t want to be set down as a bore, be careful to avoid certain
unpleasant subjects. Avoid talking about yourself, unless you are asked to do so. People
are interested in their own problems not in yours.
• To be a good conversationalist you must know not only what to say, but how also to say
it. Be mentally quick and witty. Finally, try to avoid mannerism in your conversation.
Don’t click your tongue, or roll your eyes or use your hands excessively as you speak.
