More Charismatic In Five Steps

Charisma
the art of walking in a room and making it light, the thing that makes people feel special and the rare gift of being likeable to everyone.

But how is charisma really achieved?

By definition “charisma” is:

Compelling attractiveness or charm that can inspire devotion to others.

Now that we cleared what charisma is comes up another question:

“- But, how can I become more charismatic?”

If you ask a friend of yours or your family 9/10 you’ll get

“You can’t, charisma is something you are born with…”

Here in Gentleman Zone we are known that you aren’t born stylish, charismatic and good looking. That’s something you learn on the course of your life!

Before we start I just want to clear things up a bit.

Don’t expect that just by knowing those things you will instantly become charismatic. It takes time and devotion to develop them and feel comfortable using those skills.
You can’t expect it to seem charismatic in people’s eyes from day one. People should get your new self gradually until they get used to the new insert your name here.

Let’s get down to business

1. Body Language

Now, I know it was in our last article (it’s also one of our most talked topics) but body language is vital. I won’t talk much about body language, so I will list all the articles:

2. Confidence

Confidence is that skill separating you from the others. It’s a powerful tool that makes you stand out and shows your real personality.
Again, won’t get into much detail because we’ve got you covered from before!

3. Empathy

You didn’t expect that you can be charismatic by being an a**hole, did you?
Understanding someone’s feels, pain, vision or simply putting yourself in their shoes is what will make you appeal charismatic to someone else.

4. Always listen more than you talk

We’ve made it pretty clear by now, and if you haven’t caught up yet this is the one thing you should remember:
People love talking about themselves. Make them talk and you can make them do anything for you!”

5. Never discuss other people

Do you remember that saying:

Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people

It’s by Eleanor Roosevelt and sums up everything I have to say.

In other words you can’t be small minded and charismatic at the same time.
Gossips and people should never come up in your conversation!
