Today’s book: The Charisma Myth by Olivia Fox Cabane—debunking the idea that charisma is something you’re born with and showing how anyone can develop it through specific behaviors.
Here’s your 1-minute summary:
- Charisma is learned. It’s not about genetics—it’s about how you make people feel.
- Presence is power. Truly listening and being engaged in the moment makes you instantly more charismatic.
- Confidence is magnetic. People are drawn to those who project certainty and self-assurance.
- Warmth builds trust. A genuine smile, open body language, and kindness make people feel safe around you.
- Your mind influences your presence. Managing your inner state—reducing anxiety, building self-belief—amplifies your charisma.
Charisma isn’t magic—it’s a set of skills. What’s one way you can practice presence and confidence today?
