manifest amazing goals, you naturally radiate a kind of positivity that draws
others to you. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t give the Law of Attraction
a little extra help by honing your communication skills to bolster social
success!
Here
are 18 smart tips that can improve your networking, friendships, career and
dating life by making people love you
18 Effective Communication Tips
Compliments and Affirmation Communication Tips
1. Say “I’d
love to hear more” when someone is obviously excited about something.
Let their passion enthuse you! Dive right into what they’re saying. The details
they’ll share will help you build a closer bond. Plus, your sincere interest
will mark you out as a great listener.
2. Tell people
about the positive impact they have on you. If you feel authentic, happier
or more like your best self around someone, let them know. This gives them a
sense of playing a meaningful role in your world, whether it’s with respect to
your personal life or something more professional.
3. If someone
gives you advice and it works out well for you, make sure you register this
with them. They’ll feel significant, useful and valued, as you’re telling
them that you trust them and that their opinions are extremely important to
you. Once again, this works well both in social relationships and in the
workplace.
4. Try saying
“It’s so good to see you!” as soon as you meet someone you know. This
tells them you really like seeing them! Plus, it shows them that you
aren’t just speaking to them (or spending time with them) out of obligation.
5. In
interactions with loved ones, regularly let them know they’re appreciated.
A simple remark like “I’m really grateful for X” or “Thank you so much” can
make the world of difference. This is especially effective in a long-term
relationship or friendship when there’s real scope for taking one another for
granted.
6. When someone tells
you about the goals they’re meeting on the road to achieving a dream, affirm
them by saying something like “I’m so impressed by how far you’ve come”.
This will be especially gratefully received when the person is struggling or
doing something that takes a long time (e.g. weight loss or a protracted course of
study).

7. Maintain
steady eye contact with any person you speak to. Make sure you don’t
look away more than once during the conversation. This shows that you’re
confident (which makes you attractive), signals honesty, and facilitates a
sense of shared understanding.
8. Adopt an
open posture, as this instantly makes you more likable. In other words,
relax your muscles (including your jaw), open your arms and legs, let your
shoulders drop, and don’t put a barrier up between you (e.g. by folding your
arms or holding a cushion). Discover what other power poses project happiness that could

9. Smile! It
may be a cliché, but smiling really does make all the difference to how you’re
received by others. At a neurological level, they respond more positively to
you and an instant connection is formed. And when the person smiles back, the
small number of endorphins that are released will ensure they associate you
with feeling good.
10. Consider
your tone of voice. A slower pace is proven to make people seem more
likable (within reason, of course). This is especially effective if you’re
talking slightly more slowly than your conversation partner. In addition, use
your voice to put emphasis on emotional responses. This can make you seem more
animated and interesting.
11. Keep your
face lively in the conversation! If you’re entertained, shocked, intrigued
or amused, let it show. An expressive face shows interest and makes you feel
charismatic, especially when combined with hand gestures. If you never
physically react to others, you can come across as lacking both interest and
empathy.
Conversational Skills And Communication
Tips
12. Ask open
questions. They are ones that encourage a lengthy response and leave space
for the other person to think out loud. These include “When did you decide to
move here?” or “What made you want to pursue that career?”. In contrast, closed
questions are ones that can be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”. Closed
questions can make you seem less interested in connection.
13. Always
wait for your turn to talk, instead of butting in or repeatedly opening and
closing your mouth to indicate that you want to cut across your conversation
partner. This is rude and can come across as self-important.
14. Try
paraphrasing or summarizing what you’ve heard the other person say.
Especially do this if they’ve been talking for a while about something that
matters to them. This proves you’ve been listening and shows you “get” them.
15. Always ask
people to tell you more about their lives, histories, interests, and goals
(without being too nosy, of course). Almost everyone thrives when talking about
themselves and the things they care about. It immediately fosters a good
rapport.
16. Request
explanations when you don’t know something or you’re curious to learn
more. This indicates you think the other person is smart. This, in turn, makes
them like you more and feel like they’re of value to you.
17. Try to
tune into the emotions behind what’s being said, so that when you highlight
them you immediately give a sense of knowing to your conversation partner.
For example, you might listen to them talk for 10 minutes about the details of
a work project, then offer “Wow, you must be really proud” or “It sounds like
that was incredibly stressful.”
18. Finally, be
authentic! No matter how many communication hacks you’re using, people will
generally not like you if you come across as fake. Express your personality,
your passions, and your values. Let your optimism radiate! Others will respond
in kind.
