Tip: Prize Inside! | |
When you talk with others, do you give them a verbal prize?
Something funny? Something really interesting? Something profitable? Something uplifting? Something important? Something surprising?
Perhaps you ask a provocative question to raise the level of talk?
"No one ever lost credibility by being interesting," so says my friend, Tom Antion, top-rated professional speaker and entrepreneur.
If you plan ahead and get some tasty verbal ingredients (like when you plan a meal for special guests), you'll have something of true value to offer friends, family, co-workers, and clients.
Your pay-offs? You'll have more fun when conversing, and others will prize you for what you contribute
