How can we be a better conversationalist？The key is to be an attention-giver rather than an attention-getter.? ? ? 1? ? . Here are some ways to help you.

Use Peoples Names More

We are more likely to be in tune with others when they say our name.? ? ? 2? ? . In conversation， you can use this to your advantage by asking for their name， and then dropping their name occasionally throughout the conversation later on.

Encourage People To Talk About Themselves

3? ? . Therefore， an attention-giver will give their undivided attention to the individual， and allow them to focus the conversation on themselves to feel important.

Repetition is ideal when it comes to good communication skills， especially repeating the last three words of a conversation. Simply repeating the last two or three words an individual said in a sympathetic， questioning tone will allow the conversation to go back to the person， and make them feel more important.

Emphasize Similarities

Naturally， we tend to bond with people who are like us. With total strangers， you can use this to our advantage， and shift the conversation to topics youre both interested in.? ? ? 5? ? .

A. Repeat What People Say

B. Repeat The Last Three Words

C. This gets them to talk about things they like， as youre being receptive about this similarity.

D. Talking about ourselves creates the same sensation of pleasure in the brain as food or money.

E. When we hear our name， we automatically shift our attention to the speaker， which creates an illusion that we are important.

F. This means you begin to concentrate more on the person youre speaking with， and on meeting their needs instead of your own.

G. The ability to remember someones name has been linked to people being more likely to help you， more likely to buy from you.

Four ways to make your home less poisonous

Reduce dust and deal with damp

A US study identified 45 poisonous chemicals in indoor dust. Because indoor dust contains chemicals from a wide variety of products， it is like a parking lot for chemicals in the home.
