Do You Make This Mistake In Conversations?

In the era of social media and texting, our conversations seem to be impatient, distracted, and often rude. We tend to talk at one another instead of with one another.

Conversations are a chance to connect, laugh, and learn from others. If you don't make it all about you, you'll become a remarkable conversationalist.

• Egocentric people like conversations to be about them and their favourite topic: themselves. 
• Reserved people tend to listen more but don't share and are often steamrolled in a conversation.
• Overconfident people tend to interrupt with everything they think they know.
• Insecure people need to go one better than whatever accomplishment was shared.

The best conversations move past the initial chit chat and delve into a deeper engagement of recent struggles or successes or ideas.
