1. GET OUT OF YOURSELF AND MAKE IT ABOUT THE OTHER PERSON
Have you ever had someone talk endlessly about something that you didnt have the slightest interest in? It probably felt like they were having a conversation with themselves and you just happened to be there. These people seem to be oblivious to the idea that you may not share their interest.

The best conversations begin with showing an interest in the other person, their world, and what they might be interested in. Most people love to talk about themselves. Ask them an open-ended question about something that you notice about them. If you can give them a sincere compliment or give them positive feedback, youve made a great start. Great conversationalists have a sincere interest in others, notice things about them, and use these things to start and fuel their conversations
