Not all of us are blessed with the gift of speech. While some people are naturally gifted with eloquence and can hold an audience spellbound for hours, others just can’t hold a adequate conversation for more than five seconds.
As a great man once said, “some are born great; others have greatest thrust upon them”. You may not have been born with the skill to have people listening to you as though the world’s solutions lies in your tongue, but with a few well practiced instruction, you can easily see how to.
Below are some steps that will aid you improve eloquence:
• Share what you know: A break in conversation on regular basis crops up when there is a misunderstanding of certain information. Don’t pretend that you know it all. You will get caught if you do and may end up stammering away. Instead, share what you know and what you are convinced about. Great conservations are not necessarily about world affairs. An informed talk about gardening can make your listener’s day.
• Eye contact: It is vital that you do not act as if your listener has the plague. A little eye contact goes a long way in saying, ‘what I’m saying will make more sense if it matters to you too’. Eye contact is a psychological tactic that makes your listener feel significant.
• Listen: Most people tend to direct a conversation either out of conceit or insecurity. Either approach, they end up making conversations one sided and stilted. If you truly want to speak with feeling and elicit positive responses, listen to your listener. What they have to say can steer the conservation into more worthwhile waters.
The art of eloquence is just a matter of practice. Practice the above methods and within a short time you will be surprised how fluent you have become.
What you need to do is to develop a little personal philosophy and inner belief system that will help guide you to where you wish to be in the shortest amount of time. This will take some thinking time, so first, why not schedule out some personal quiet time right now and start considering the future you in 2009?
