Strike up three conversations with total strangers each day.

Speaking to strangers has been one the most important growth experience I have had so far. It has dramatically improved my social skills.
I have noticed that sharing these kind of experiences is a real value for people nowadays, because many have lost this ability to speak to strangers without being afraid.
It is absolutely amazing to experience how actually easy it is, and I am sure many people would have better lifes if they realised that.


To spice it up you could strike conversations with a goal in mind, like :

-Try to have a conversation about a specific topic and last more than 15 mn for each conversation
-Try to make them laugh more than 3 times for every conversation
-Try to have a cup of tea with a total stranger
-Try to give him/her some love and ask him/her to do the same to 2 other people the same day (thus generating a chain of love )
-Try to improve your story telling skills by telling stories to strangers you just met
-Or any other goal that seems challenging to you.
