Is Your Body Language Betraying You? ... and Robbing You of Your Right to Be Successful and Happy? Not all of us are
confident speakers … good at conversation… or comfortable meeting new people. Even when we master what we want to say, often
our BODY TELLS A CONFLICTING STORY. Body language plays a pivotal role in how we communicate. Your eye contact, how you carry yourself and
the positioning of your arms, legs and head sends a message of its own. Why is body language so
important? … Because our body and voice make up 90% of the way we
communicate (what we actually say represents only 10%). In fact, every action – no matter how small - communicates to others on a subconscious
level without them even realising it. A confident body and a strong voice can open the door to new career
opportunities, strengthen your friendships and even improve your love life; whereas
a meek voice and contradictory body signals can stop opportunity dead in its
tracks. With the right body language you will make people feel
respected. They will sense your confidence, your mood, and instantly know how
receptive you are to them and their ideas. “An Uncomfortable, Awkward Body Leaves People with the
Wrong Impression” Studies
show that we only have 4 seconds to make a good first impression. And, based on these 4 seconds, people with
decide if they like you, trust you, and will or will not buy from you. For
example, let me tell you a brief story about Betty, a brilliant events manager
from New York, with a successful career and striking good looks. When
I met Betty she told me an interesting story about body language. You
see, although Betty had a wonderful career, she really wanted to settle down
and start a family - but she was having a hard time finding the love of her
life. So she decided to post a message on the internet inviting a variety of
bachelors to a special speed dating event. Well, the results were disastrous! … The
first gentleman Betty met was tall, blond and certainly attractive, but he
spoke with a meek, whiny voice and never looked her in the eyes. The second man
was far too aggressive and Betty felt uncomfortable as he invaded her
space. And, the third kept his hands
clenched and his arms tightly across his chest. In
fact, Betty only felt comfortable with one of the 19 men who arrived that day. Betty
soon realized that body language was the key to this man’s success. He had
taken the time to understand the importance of his voice and gestures ... he arrived
with confidence ... and he knew how to use his body to build trust and rapport.
You see, every single thing we do says something about us. Our
gestures and actions affect every part of our life. If
you get the feeling that people don’t seem to trust you… if you notice that people
look uncomfortable around you… or seem bored when listening to you (even when
the topic of conversation is interesting)… … Then this timely bulletin will be of
interest to you. Don’t Let
Your Words Be The Only Way People
