Charisma is one of the most critical skills you can develop in life, love and business.

Charisma smooths the edges of all communication, allowing for greater honesty, more humor, and a deeper connection.

Charisma is the key that takes you from pissing off the customer to making the sale.

Charisma is what keeps people coming back for more even if your product or service costs more or is easily replicable.

Charisma = Confidence + Love

It’s a baseline expectation that your confidence is based on your competence. You are good at what you do, and you know you are good at it. You must have both or you’re simply cocky without a leg to stand on, or insecure and undermining yourself.

Projecting love in all your interactions with others shows your care, your sincerity, your humanity. This cannot falter, and if it ever does, you have to own it and apologize - projecting love while you do so.

Putting them together makes you unstoppable.

You can be trusted because you are capable, and you are using your capabilities for good. It shows in every interaction people have with you.

Your confidence and self-love become a driving force that pushes you forward, past fear, past self-doubt, past the learning curve until you can only win. It is a self-fulfilling prophecy and inspires more confidence from others, which becomes a virtuous circle. You gain a reputation for excellence that is well-earned.

Your confidence in others inspires them to be confident in themselves. Your love for others, projected in your interactions with them, helps them feel good when they are around you, or when they use your products or services. They feel happier, more empowered, more trusted, more capable, more loving - all things we strive for in life. If you are the source of those feelings, your desirability goes up a thousand-fold.

Charisma is a magnetic force that attracts good into your life.

"Charisma is the ability to project confidence and love at the same time. It’s almost always possible to be honest and positive.” - Naval Ravikant
