Top tips to improve your Charisma

Top 7 tips to improve your charisma

What is charisma? We all know these people, who are just so full of charisma.. When they come into a room, they attract their eyes and when they speak, they hang tensely on their lips.

Charisma is really only one thing: authenticity. When a person feels comfortable, has something to tell, goes through life with open eyes and is positive towards others, then we perceive him/her as charismatic and with "charisma".

The good thing is that you can work to become more charismatic. Here are the top tips

Confidence

Self-confidence provides charisma – but not in its old-fashioned, superficial meaning. It's not about extroversion, it's not about a big ego. Self-confidence literally means being aware of yourself.

Knowing what values you represent (and act accordingly), where your own limits are (and respect them) and rest within yourself.

This radiance has an immediate effect on others and those who are at ease with themselves may not be the favorite person of all, but it has a big effect on similarly ticking people.

Optimism

Do you know them too: This Naysayer? Everything is stupid, exhausting, annoying and an imposition? No one would come up with the idea of expressing charisma to these people. And the airing is very much negative. On the other hand, there are people who go through life positively. Even in bad situations, they can't be subdued and have a look at the good in them. Instead of groaning, they come with suggestions and instead of painting everything black, they see opportunities. If you are optimistic, you can inspire and inspire others – in a positive sense. Optimism always requires a little courage, so it is not surprising that optimists often become symbolic leaders and makers who captivate others with their charisma.

Enthusiasm

There is probably one thing about optimism: enthusiasm. If you tell a person that they're burning for something, they're in a very different presence than someone who just sneaks through their lives. This enthusiasm can be contagious or impressive – in any case, it provides a radiance that others quickly become aware of.

Presence

Just addressed on the sidelines: the presence. Charisma did not happen to me by chance. Even if it seems to be the case with some people. ;) In fact, it also means that you are present in the present. In what you do and in which you want to be perceived. If I only talk to other people with half the attention, I will not come across charismatically. If I concentrate on my counterpart, give him my full attention and am self-confident (see above), then this results in a presence that does not leave the other person cold.

Appearance

Appearance and presence are, of course, also closely related. Of course, dresses make people and a chic outfit always directly ensures a more impressive appearance. But also the body language, facial expressions and inner attitude are part of it. An open body language (no crossed arms), a friendly or neutral facial expression and an open and self-confident attitude have a great effect. The performance literally becomes one – because you radiate positivity and self-confidence.

Authenticity

Being authentic - what is it? Many people, who often stand on stages and speak to audiences, want to look authentic. Some people say that this is always the case anyway (how should one be someone other than oneself?) and others are firmly convinced that one has to work on it.

Author Oscar Wilde also said: "Beyourself, everyone else is already taken."

To be authentic, you don't have to pay much attention to something or practice it. It is important to know yourself and your values. You know that self-determination and freedom are important to you? Then it would probably not be authentic to become a member of a party whose principles are in regulation and redistribution. Authentic means acting according to one's own values and reconciling this action with one's own goals.

Appreciation

Appreciation also leads to a great charisma. Anyone who talks about themselves can be exciting at first glance, but will surely quickly lose this impression again. Paying attention to others, time and appreciation is only what makes it possible to exchange ideas with others. And that is a big part of what is necessary for charisma.

Yours,
