Charisma isn't magic. It's 12 to 15 learnable behaviors: standing straight, holding eye contact, nodding when others talk. Anyone can practice these skills and become charismatic.

There is no magic. There is no mysticism. There is no spirituality around this. Everything comes down to behavior. I think about everything in terms of skills. If you say, hey, be more charismatic, what does someone do? I say charismatic, but what it really means is 12 skills underneath of it. That means that when you walk into a room, stand up straight, look everyone in the eyes. When someone talks, nod your head. If you do all of these 12 behaviors or 15 behaviors, people begin to describe you as charismatic. Then it's not like, oh, I'm just not that insert character trait. It's really, "Oh, I have not mastered these 12 skills."
