Hilariously, she says immediately that you can become charismatic “without changing your personality.” Not wanting to “change who they are” keeps a lot of people from working on self-improvement so her stance is one way to avoid those barriers.
She says charisma is a matter of 3 things: presence, power, and warmth.
On presence, she says you should always strive to be 100% present whenever talking to someone. Give them your full attention and do not let your mind wander.
I ended up not finishing the last couple chapters. It just wasn’t really very useful to me. Too PC and more focused on a corporate setting, which i’m just not very interested in right now.
I will take the presence idea though. I need to try to be more focused 100% when talking to people and not get distracted by other things or internally monologuing about what I’m gonna say next.
