    I'll add on to the point of being of service. There's something you need to understand about it's opposite pole of 'TAKING SERVICE' mindset that most people are stuck in. This is the #1 reason you're ruining your relationships. Because you come at it from a taking mindset instead of one giving service. You take more than you give. For the longest time periods I looked at relationships as how could this person be of benefit for me? once I made the switch of "how could I provide service to this person without taking anything back in return" was the turning point in my personal relationships. Lastly, I'll end this comment with a quote on bible that can be applied to this point.
    "Luke 6:38 NLT
    Give, and you will receive. Your gift will return to you in full-pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, running over, and poured into your lap. The amount you give will determine the amount you get back.”

      I definitely second looking up words you don't understand, even if that's due to the specific context. And really drill the definition(s) into your mind before departing again. Not a fan of the old 'read books' response. A lot of peeps read books and loove to romanticise it and because of this will never be able to realise when they get to the point where they think they are being productive by reading a book and then starts to become a vicious cycle, an addiction process, just another hideaway from your true self.

    This is one of the most important video's I have ever seen and it's not so much about being charismatic, it's about being honest and truly interested. I have worked in child protection services for 10 years and the most people I got to meet and help were people that didn't fit the system, 'professionals' didn't know what to do. In alot of cases I managed to turn the tide and get fitting help just by going there, sitting there and not judging them. I have alot of life experience myself, including addiction, addicted parents and abuse, so i can relate to some of them. It was the most fullfilling job I ever had.
    This is the way to really connect with people. Be yourself, be honest and be interested.

      Actually, he did a fine job of guiding people to gradually reveal their own shiny charisma... not by focusing on "being charismatic" but by being fully present, listening fully attentively with a blank mind (no agenda, strategizing or other "mental noise" ) and coming from the heart.

It is difficult for you to be so silent but it is awesome!! What a gift to your guests. You show them such graceful respect when you do so.

    I love that he is talking about the responsible helpful side of charisma. The idea that charisma is a tool and can be used positively or negatively. It all comes down to intent.
    I'm also glad that he touched on the potential cost of charisma, in that if you have it, you need to keep a handle on it, or it can over feed the ego it can become a huge deficit to your own growth and then negatively affect the people drawn to it in you. Just like money... It a powerful tool but also a pretty enticing trap. 😬

I look after my mum who has dementia but a couple of years ago after a series if highly traumatic events I broke down… and I haven’t been able to pull myself out of the depression pit I fell into. Sometimes I pull away from mum if I hit a really rough spot, but she gets upset and feels frustrated if I do this. I feel so guilty not being able to do more for her. My mate told me the other day, it’s ok for your mum to get bored if it gives you space to breathe, but I still felt bad. Your comment basically says the same thing. So thank you for that.

    I think it also has to do with how open your energy is- your open heart and mind. People are drawn in more by your energy than anything else. Some of the most charismatic people I’ve encountered have big ideas and are great communicators, a result of open flowing energy, but it’s their big open hearts that make me want to listen and receive. Russell has a big open heart.

    One thing I've noticed we're less interested in developing our own charisma than we are finding other people with it.
    The reason for this is it's hard to feel the benefit of your own: you can think, "wow I really engaged with that person and asked insightful questions which helped them know I'd really heard them and also helped them see a new perspective." but you still leave feeling like you did not have an authentic encounter because you were the one trying to be all those things. So you've given your charisma but not received any in the transaction.
    So we seek out charismatic people to be near because it feels uplifting and nourishing to us, but being charismatic is less immediately rewarding.

    01:18 Charisma is about being present and having a real presence.
    02:18 Charisma is about becoming your authentic self
    03:20 Active listening helps overcome social anxiety.
    04:20 Conventional systems restrict us in busy cities
    05:07 Practice active listening and staying present while communicating with others.
    06:11 Deal with your own neurosis psychosis and fears to be present and charismatic.

    We could all do with giving ourselves permission to feel those, sometimes, uncomfortable and paralysing feelings that get in the way of us being our best selves.
    We are most charismatic (and powerful no doubt) when our social mask/persona/ego can loosen its grip and melt away in favour of our essence, authenticity and uniqueness to shine through, and in doing so we can recognise the essence and uniqueness of another. The key is to be present and self aware.
