Conversations: When to Hold 'Em, When to Fold 'Em - where to rent a mechanical bull

How many of us walked into a room full of people and wanted to turn around and leave?
My heart froze when I thought of cyber events.
Isn't our mother teaching us not to talk to strangers?
In this article, however, we will look at how to talk to strangers.
The first thing you need to know is that we all hate taking part in online activities. Why?
No matter how "outgoing" you are, it's hard to push yourself to someone else.
Knowing that we are all in pain, these things are a bit easier.
Second, your job in social activities is to meet people.
Your job is to know as many people as you can.
Your job is not to sell yourself.
You can sell yourself in the process, but this is secondary and must be cautious.
Great Dale Carnegie said: "You can make more friends in two months because you are more interested in others than you are trying to make others feel for you in two years
"Dell Carnegiemeant means that the rules are the same whether you are attending a social event or having a family reunion picnic.
Listen to each other.
Ask each other questions.
Understand each other's situation.
When you do these things, you will suddenly find that you have a new friend, a potential colleague, or a possible customer.
How do you start?
Let's go back to that night when you walk into a room full of people and look around.
This is what you see.
Two people talking.
Their heads bowed slightly to each other as if they were heard in the crowd.
A group of people smiled and talked casually next to the food.
Another group of casual chat next to the bar.
A man stood at the door, alone.
Which of these three "groups" are you approaching?
If you answer by yourself, you win the gold medal.
If you answer a group of laughing and talking people near a bar or food, you win the Silver Star.
If you answer two people who speak with their heads down, you will get a booing award.
The main reason you go to someone is that someone is looking for someone to talk.
Like you, they don't feel well.
The man wants to talk to you.
He will always appreciate you when you approach that person.
When do you catch them?
When you walk into the room and find someone, introduce yourself.
You don't have to wait for someone to introduce you.
Once you introduce yourself, start questioning the person.
Ask what they do.
Give them a chance to tell you all about them.
Ask what brought them to the event.
Search for what you have in common.
Don't ask personal questions, like: Are you married?
Do you have children?
If someone comes over, introduce yourself and your new friends.
Tell the couple about the two of you and what you're talking about.
Bring that new guy into the conversation.
When you start to finish the conversation, ask for their card if the other party does not ask for your card.
This may stimulate them to ask you.
Don't give him your card unless requested.
When to Fold \ 'em.
No more than 10 minutes, it is better to leave the conversation after 5 minutes.
If you notice that there are fewer people talking to you, or their eyes flying around in the room, forgive yourself gracefully even if you don't talk for 5 minutes.
Don't let this man stand alone.
Instead, it is proposed to bring them into another group.
Thank you to the person who gave you the business card, thank you to the person who talked to you.
If you're close to someone who obviously doesn't want to talk to you, then thank them gracefully for their time and move on.
Don't waste your time on people who are really not interested.
You can notice their level of interest by their reaction to you, that is, they answer your open question with a single word answer.
Their eyes flew around the room to find someone "better" to speak.
They don't look at you when they talk.
They won't ask you any questions.
Like everything else we do, the web needs to be practiced.
Try these tips to see if it will be easier next time you enter a well known crowded room.
