William Shakespeare said that the world's a stage and we all were actors. But it takes more than an actor to be charismatic. How to be charismatic. This is Dr Paul, author of Boomer girls. A Boomer Woman's Guide to Men and Dating. Empathy. Empathy is not sympathy. Empathy means putting yourself into the feelings of the other person. It's like, I feel your pain. I know what you're going through. I identify with you. And you bring out the other. They want you to feel what they feel. That's being charismatic. And you really, really have a genuineness about it. Don't be phony because people pick out a phony, like that. You've got to be real. And maybe, you don't feel charismatic with some people. Or maybe you can develop that within your own personality. To really feel the way, the other person feels. Whether it's illness or whether it's a feeling of being rejected. Whatever it may be, you need to get into the feeling of the other. It's called empathy. And that is the easiest way to become charismatic. It's very simple. Become a real person. Not a phony. Be charismatic, other people love you for it. This is Dr Paul. May your fantasies of today, be your realities of tomorrow.
