Hello and welcome to my blog today.

Hi there!!! Its @elaebi again on your screen writing you all as usual. Today I will be relating with you all how to make a smooth sailing conversation. Some people start a conversation on the right foot but seem to end up going round in circles because both parties are arguing about whose idea should be bough and accepted. If you want to have a smooth conversion, pleas apply this tips:
• Don't multitask, be present: Focus on just one topic of discussion instead of leaving a particular thing unfinished before deviating to another topic. Treat a particular topic to the very end before jumping into another.

• Don't act like you know everything: Truth is everyone you meet on a daily basis knows something you have no idea about. Life is a lesson and we learn everyday. So whenever you're in the middle of a conversation, do not act like you know everything and even if you know about the topic of discussion very well, still act naive about it so that you can learn some more.

• Try not to repeat yourself: This might make the whole conversation idea boring. If you've said something before and your companion understood quite alright, do not go back to that same topic again and move further to other important things.

• If you don't know, say you don't know: Don't act like you know it all even when you're new about a particular topic. If you have no idea about it just be open, swallow your pride and tell your companion you don't know it. Pride is what has left so many without the right knowledge because they act like that know it all. Nigerians will call that kind of person"ITK" which means "I Too Know" lol.

• Listen: Even if you feel the person is talking gibberish, don't call him/her short, just listen. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion remember?.

• Be brief, don't give every details: You have to be very concise and have respect for peoples time as well. You don't need the relate every single details, just got straight to the point and hit the nail on the head.

I hate conversations like one on one conversations especially with an opposite sex. I'm usually always nervous and don't know what to say. I end up just smiling and nodding and I fidget a lot too. I don't even know why though I'm improving these days.
