Taking the Conversation to the Next Level
5:10:29 2023-10-10 774

1- Spark a new direction with hypotheticals. This may feel foreign at first, but give it a go and see just how the conversation opens up dramatically. Here are some thought-provoking questions to inspire more conversation:

  • Given all you have accomplished so far, what do you think has been the most important to you/beneficial to your community?
  • If you could be rich, famous, or influential, which would you choose and why?
  • Is this the best time of your life?
  • If you could only own 10 things, what would they be?
  • If you had to choose only five foods and two drinks for the rest of your life, what would they be?


2- Keep a note of what gets good responses in your conversations. Return to these "winning" conversation tactics time and time again as long as they continue to work for you.

  • Equally, remember the topics that seem to make people feel uncomfortable or bored and avoid these in the future.


3- Read up on current events. Dig around into what's going on in the world and try asking your conversation partner their thoughts about the latest big incident in the news (remember though, in most cases it is best to avoid politics).

  • Keep in mind funny new stories that could get you a laugh as well as remind your conversation partner of funny news stories they have read recently.

4- Practice conciseness. Coming up with good conversation topics is part of what makes for good conversation, but how you convey the topics of conversation that you do come up with matters also. Be sure to get to the point of the topic without meandering about aimlessly.

  • Try to not digress into tangents as you are bringing up a conversation topic or you risk losing your conversation partner's attention!
