be better at making conversation

i want to improve my conversation skill.

I am improving in this.

Ha ha, I am so awkward. It really hit me I need to be better at this today.

I’m horrible at making casual conversation. I’m trying to get better at it but my confidence in this area is horrible. It’s not that I don’t like to talk to people, but I find it very difficult unless there is an obvious purpose like a project, meeting, etc. I don’t think it is a lack of courage as much as a complete inability to generate phrases that people recognize as friendly. I am going to try to get better at it this year and I’ll also exchanging info on this web site for a few days to see what comes of it.

Here I am again, I went back to work and there he was again, this time he started a conversation with me, I noticed that is how it works, you sometimes have to reach out to be reached. It becomes alot easier if you just decide to go for it!

Well I made conversation with a very handsome and really outgoing guy where I work with my mother. I actually strolled over to him and just struck up a conversation, It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be! I’m very excited, I can’t wait to see him again! This was something worth doing!

I used to be really shy in jr. high and high school, and finally in college I came out of my shell. The trick to this is to ask good questions that are open ended, and not be afraid to share your insights :) It’s totally worth it because you make more friends in the process!

This is actually really easy if you have things in common with the other person and they want to talk back to you… If they don’t want to talk to you it’s hard to make conversation when their answers are just yes or no.

• Getting to know people better so I know what to talk about
• Find out things which most people are interested in to talk about
• Find people who are interested in the same things as me

OK, helping strikes are really horrible… they just made me feel nasty and horrible for not helping people and like there’s no purpose of me being there as noone would care if i was gone… I’m not going on one again!
