Do you want to be a charming person? Here are some tips.

Charming people make their body language open. They smile, laugh, and maintain eye contact while talking with others. Of course, you mustn’t overdo this. The moment someone senses that you are forcing yourself to smile, or laughing too enthusiastically at a weak joke, they will dismiss you as false. You should also work on your voice. Avoid flat vowels. Whenever you get the chance, chant (吟诵) your vowels out loud, making them as smooth and polished as you can. More generally, keep your voice calm, soft, and clear.

Charming people automatically (自动地) look for the best in everyone they meet and will usually find something good to say about them. Running other people down behind their back is an ugly and charmless trait (品质). Charming people want everyone to be happy and have a good time. Of course, this does not mean they like everyone, but their basic approach is tolerant.

This goodwill is often rooted in a broad mind and a real curiosity about others. Such curiosity needs to be distinguished from nosiness, however. Nosy people are looking for gossip (闲话). They have no real interest in others. They just want to hear about others’ failures because such information makes them feel better about their own life. Charming people think differently. If someone tells them they have just returned from a vacation in Iceland, for example, they do not assume the other person is showing off or trying to outdo them. Instead, they smile, nod and ask what they thought. And their questions will be thoughtful. Rather than just asking how much it cost or what the food was like in a bored tone, charming people will ask whether they chose to go there because they are interested in Viking history, for example.

Few traits are more loveable or more charming than self-effacement (谦逊). Charming people are realistic about their limitations. They don’t loathe (厌恶) themselves and neither do they think they are special. They simply recognize themselves for what they are. And when they run themselves down, they do so with a smile and a laugh, drawing you into sharing the joke. If they fell over during a job interview, or dropped their notes midway through a speech, they would say “oh God, I made such a fool of myself today”, shake their head, laugh and then tell you what happened.
