Talk about other's interests from "summary" of How To Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
Talking about others' interests is a great way to start a conversation. It shows that you care and are willing to take the time to learn more about the other person. It also helps to build strong, positive relationships.- Taking part in activities related to someone else’s interests gives an opportunity to understand his or her feelings and have meaningful conversations. Sharing your similar likes with another person can join you even more closer.
- Find out what excites or motivates the person when talking about his or her interests. Showing that you care by asking further questions makes the conversation fruitful and absorbing.
- Being understanding and capable of respect and appreciation of other person’s interests creates a strong connection between two people. You also could suggest ideas how to expand their interests or help gain new skills.
- If you are looking to create friendly relationships with people, it is important to pay attention and show genuine interest in their interests and hobbies. Ask them about the things they like doing and get updates on their progress.
- Showing a genuine concern for others' hobbies also helps build trust and a strong sense of community. It can make them feel valued and supported.
- Demonstrating that you care about somebody’s interests and efforts complements friendship and can lead to mutual respect. Respect their decisions - whether or not we agree, this shows our tolerance level and prove that our relationship is based on mutual understanding.
