CHAPTER 37
Translate Skill into Art
Do you see a man skillful in his work? He will stand before kings.
—PROVERBS 22:29
Once you have all the techniques needed to create charm, there are some personal commitments that can only come from you. It is when these attitudes are added to your listening, looking, and speaking abilities that your well-practiced techniques rise above themselves and become the “art” of charm.
Your Tools for Charming Others
Blend all your abilities together into the art of charm by incorporating these attitudes into your listening and speaking habits. These are the commitments that will bring pleasure to you and others:
- Resolve to be pleasant and pleasing with each person you meet.
- Resolve to be gracious and understanding, no matter what is going on.
- Resolve to be caring, considerate, and nonjudgmental.
- Resolve to be quick to smile and quick to praise.
Paradoxically, it is only when you put the other person ahead of you that you end up ahead yourself.
