1 ) Things may go out of style, but memories don't. Going to a concert or on vacation with friends is probably a better way to spend your money than a gadget that's going to be out of date in a few months anyway.
2 ) The Greatest Gift you can give someone is your time,Because when you are giving someone your time,You are giving them a portion of your life that you will never get back.
Charming people all seem to:
Listen exceptionally well
Have excellent memory for details
Praise our accomplishments and empathized with our troubles
Make good eye contract
Ask lots of relevant questions
Be good at accepting compliments
Be genuine in their expressions, never false or flaky
Understand the power of touch, be it a great handshake, hug, or arm squeeze
Make the other person feel really special
Avoid offering unsolicited advice
Use our first name a bit more than most people would during conversation (without overdoing it)
Ask great follow-up questions
Be honest, if not brutally so
In other words, being charming isn't about being the center of attention. In fact, it's just the opposite. Charming people put the spotlight on SOMEONE ELSE, allowing someone else to bask in the glory. A charming person acts almost like an interviewer, and almost everyone LOVES to be interviewed.
