It is a basic courtesy to remember each other's names.

If we pay a little attention, we will find that the details that seem to overflow inadvertently in life are often more touching.

Details are like warm and beautiful pearls, dotted in all aspects, emitting attractive brilliance in the silent place. Details are like continuous spring rain, awakening the softest place in the heart that has been honed by real life, and the hard shell wrapped in the heart seems to slowly disintegrate and fall off invisibly, turning into a wet shame. This is the power of detail.

There is a saying abroad: "People are more interested in their own names than the sum of all the names on the earth". Therefore, remembering other people's names and calling them out easily is equivalent to giving people a clever and effective compliment. In real life, if you want to be comfortable in complex interpersonal communication, you must master some methods and skills to remember other people's names.

When it comes to this name, we are not unfamiliar at all, because we all have this name. Even the little savage in Robinson Crusoe has a name called "Friday".

Because people tend to pay more attention to their own names than others' names, it is very important to remember others' names in interpersonal communication.

Some people may ask, is it so important to remember other people's names?

Of course it matters. We in China have always attached great importance to the issue of names. In order to give their children a nice and meaningful name, many parents consult celebrities, look up dictionaries, and even ask fortune tellers for divination. There was even a saying in ancient China that "it is better to give children a daughter than to teach them a skill;" Give him a good name, it is better to teach him a skill. Therefore, in the eyes of China people, names are by no means meaningless symbols, and so are foreign countries.

Being able to remember each other's names is not only a basic etiquette in life, but also a good impression on yourself.

Being able to remember each other's names will be of great use in communication. In life, when you talk to others, others are familiar and enthusiastic about yourself, but you can't name them. Encountering such a situation will not only make you embarrassed, but also disappoint others.

It is precisely because names have extraordinary significance to a person that it is even more important for us to remember other people's names.

Carnegie, a master of success, once said, "No matter what language, a person's name is the sweetest voice he can hear."

Although the name consists of only a few simple words, it is one of the channels leading to people's hearts. Imagine if we call someone's name in a strange place easily and kindly, and the other person will be very surprised and moved-in the other person's view, we are just familiar with each other. Maybe he doesn't remember where we met, but we can call him by his name, which undoubtedly tells the other person that you care about me. In this way, we will be closer to each other.

Remembering other people's names can give us more respect.

By remembering each other's names, you can avoid calling each other "hello", "hey" and "who am I talking about" when you meet. You know, it hurts people's self-esteem. If we break each other's hearts, how can they respect us?

Some people may say, "I know it's important to remember a person's name, but I'm too busy at work to remember these names at all, and my brain seems to be too insensitive to remember them." Sometimes I remind myself that I must remember them, but I can't name them. What should I do? "

It doesn't matter. Let's look at Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte's method. Maybe we can help you.

Napoleon's nephew Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte once proudly told people that even though he was busy, he could still remember the names of all the people he knew.

In fact, his method is very simple. If he doesn't catch the other person's name, he will say, "Sorry, I didn't catch it." If the other person's name is not common, he said, "Can you tell me how your name is written?"

In the conversation with the other party, Charles Louis Napolé on Bonaparte will deliberately say that person's name many times, trying to connect it with that person's characteristics, expressions and looks in his mind.

If the other person is a big shot, he will go further.

As long as no one is around, he writes that person's name on a piece of paper, ponders it carefully, absorbs it in his heart, and then shreds the paper. In doing so, he not only remembered abstract name symbols, but also remembered vivid impressions with his eyes and ears.

We must know Carnegie, right? But do you know how Carnegie succeeded?

Let's take a look at a clip from his biography:

A Scottish boy once got a mother rabbit, and it wasn't long before the mother rabbit gave birth to a litter of rabbits.

At that time, it was busy farming, so I couldn't tell anyone to find feed for rabbits. So Carnegie came up with a clever idea. He gathered the children nearby and said to them, "If anyone can find the rabbit's feed, name it after him."

This method really worked, which left a deep impression on Carnegie.

Years later, when he started his own business, he applied this skill to his work, which brought him millions of dollars in income.

When he wants to sell the railway tracks to the Pennsylvania Railway Bureau, he collects information about this railway bureau in advance. Soon after, Carnegie built a steel plant in Pittsburgh, which was named after Tom, the director of Pennsylvania Railroad Company.

Then, please guess, when the Pennsylvania Railway Bureau purchases rails, which company will Director Tom purchase from? It is with a high memory and good use of other people's names that Carnegie finally summed up a set of secrets for dealing with people.

He is most proud of being able to name most of his subordinates. He often proudly said that during his tenure, the company never went on strike.

Carnegie's successful experience tells us that remembering other people's names is the first step to success.

Some people may think this is a mountain out of a molehill, but what we don't admit is that people in modern society want to be respected and recognized more and more. It can not only make the other party feel respected, but also win the favor of the other party. What we do is to remember a name, which is simple and meaningful. Why not do it?
