To become a more sociable person, you must first become open to communication. No advice will help you become a sociable person if you become locked in yourself.
Instruction manual
one
First of all, the correct attitude is important: positive, cheerfulness and goodwill towards others. Let instead of a gloomy expression on your face you have a sincere smile!

Being sociable does not mean communicating with everyone. But if you want to develop communication skills as quickly as possible, then practice communication constantly. This means that he does not get away from situations when you need to communicate, but to look for these situations yourself. And do not say that you have no one to communicate with! There are a lot of people around you, and in each one you can find at least something interesting, each person is pleased to hear a compliment.
We saw a neighbor - say hello joyfully, ask about something or give a compliment. Stand at the cash desk in the store - smile at the seller, say something nice. Looking for a street - do not hesitate to ask a passerby, thank, say something nice or just smile. All this seems to be a trifle, but in reality you are accustoming yourself to being open to the world and people.

Take the initiative. If you find yourself in an unfamiliar company, you do not need to sit in the corner and wait for someone to pay attention to you. Go up to some person and start a conversation. You don’t have to invent anything, just say something like “Hi, I'm Lena, what's your name?.. This is the first time I’ve been here, I just thought to drop by this party. Do you often come here?” That's all. Any beginning that comes to mind, and then you will not notice how you begin to communicate.

Often, an uncommunicative person faces a problem - where to start a conversation, what to talk about. No need to think over anything, act impromptu! Do you know what people like to talk about the most? About myself! Therefore, show sincere interest and attention to people. Ask about what interests them the most — about themselves. For example, about hobbies or hobbies. Listen, ask. And most importantly, show understanding - this is what all people need.
5
If you are laconic, this does not mean that you cannot be sociable. All that is required of you is to pay attention to people and ask about them. For example, you call a client who told you last time that his son went to school. Ask how success at school, whether the child likes the school.
6
A sense of humor will not be superfluous in communication.
7
If you are shy, which is often the case with uncommunicative people, do not focus on this. The more you talk, the faster you will get rid of your shyness. In the meantime, treat this with humor and slowly overcome your fear of communication. And by the way, most people like shy people. That's not fatal! For example, the famous Andy Warhol was always shy, but this did not prevent him from becoming successful and self-fulfilling in his work.
eight
Do not show arrogance or humiliation in communication. Behave naturally and simply, and you don't have to portray anything.
Just be yourself, and you will succeed!
