Improving Charisma

Why are do some people seem to draw all attention without effort, while others will always be a wall flower?

Maria Duval has some good suggestions to build up your charisma:

Show yourself.
Be positive towards others who could have good intentions towards you. In this way, you can take down the invisible veil and radiating this feeling. Yes, people around you can feel it as we energy mass ourselves.

Show interest
Show interest in other people and don't fake it. Ask yourself to listen wholeheartedly. Ask questions that interest the other party and invite them to talk about their experience. Everybody loves to talk about themselves.

Open yourself.
Approach others openly. Keep eye contact during a conversation. Do not avoid eye contact, and watch your body language. Crossing your arms or legs does not invite for conversation. Stand or sit casually and use a lively way of speaking.

Remember people's names
When being introduced to a dozen new people on a party, no one expects you to remember all the names. But people do really like it if you remember and use their names. So listen carefully when being introduced and repeat someone's name or ask if you have heard it correctly.
