The number one way to get a good conversation with no lulls or cringe moments is to set an intention on why you are speaking with the person

Start the conversation on the right foot you can do that by walking up to them with an open body language show you want to communicate with them and you are excited. Your smile is your opening line

The first words when entering a conversation should be hey how are you. Something simple and easy to bounce off of

Look for the sparks in your conversation the topics that make them go Oh! And raise there eyebrows

1. Mention a bridge a future time for example: “Hey what are you doing this weekend” would be an excellent example
2. then say we’ll it was great speaking with you good luck on that whatever it was
