Secrets to Finding Happiness 13

The fourteenth step to happiness is to STRIKE A CONVERSATION! It’s hard to approach someone and strike a conversation because you don’t know who they are or what they might think of you. But be courageous. Other people might thank you for talking to them first.

One of the ways to boost your communication skills and adjust yourself to the situation fast is to talk to someone first. Just say, “Hello” first and see how that person reacts to your greeting. If that person looks at you as if they have no interest in talking to you, then say, “nice meeting you” and find another person to talk to.

On the other hand, if that person looks at you with a smile and says “Hello” back, then try to continue with the conversation. Start talking about the weather or what interested you the most on TV. Also, try asking questions about what interests them the most. There are so many things you can talk about. It’s just the first step that’s hard to take.
