TALKING TO STRANGERS MASTERY

 

LEARN TO TALK TO STRANGERS WITH EASE, COMFORT AND SELF-CONFIDENCE

 

ABOUT THIS BOOK

Talking to people you don't know can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life. It's also one of the most difficult, because we're all a little bit afraid of encountering someone who doesn't want to talk to us.

 

But why should we be afraid? Talking to strangers is good for you and them, and it can bring happiness into your life, or theirs—or both! This has been scientifically proven.

 

You might be thinking "but I'm not sure what they would be interested in." The truth is: neither do they know about you! But don't worry about that—they'll be happy just to shoot the breeze with anybody willing enough to engage them in conversation.

 

You don't need a fancy invitation or offer of free drinks; just ask them how their day is going and listen politely as they talk about their pets, or their job troubles or whatever else comes up.

 

If after twenty minutes there's no sign that anyone wants this interaction to continue, then feel free to leave without feeling guilty!
