You think someone misunderstands you. It’s you who gave out the wrong signals
Our body language speaks way more than we think. I read in a study that the first thing a person notices in someone is their hands. Isn’t it fascinating? What I used to believe that people notice shoes or dresses. But No! I was wrong. It’s the hands. And we connect with people because of the hand movements. I know you might be thinking, what is this girl speaking. And you are right to believe that because we are never made aware of such aspects. Neither by our parents nor at school. Forget college or workspace. So how do we identify and learn about it.
Well, Insight-It is at its rescue. Today we will be discussing this aspect itself. And let me tell you, we are going to make the most of it cause this read would not just be a read but a practice for you all. If you are ready, let’s begin.
Be prepared cause we are going to work now. No, no, no, if you think you are just going to sit back, that’s not how this is happening. Okay? So do all the activities and know for yourself, “what change do we aim to bring”. Let’s go…
1. Let’s start with OBSERVATION
First before we begin the change, I want you all to observe. The one thing we don’t put our minds to but always execute. So what do you need to do? Walk up to a mirror and notice where your hands are placed. Remember don’t take your phone in your hands. That analysis is for some other day. Just observe. Nothing is right or wrong, It’s your way. So be free and notice the way you stand, place your hand, and look. Note down any 5 prime observations of yours. You can remember if you are good at that. Did you do it?
Remember the change doesn’t happen if you don’t make it happen.
2. Let’s Understand
As we believe in – One Thing At A Time.
I am not here to provide you with the answers NOW. That is impossible just typing cause then the complaints would be that “It doesn’t work”. That is because everything cannot be explained in typing. Thus, that is what we do in our workshops (Paid & Unpaid). Join our WhatsApp community to gain access – https://chat.whatsapp.com/C5QzNEHqeHG4LmaoEqPaCm
Here we will analyse your observation and help you understand the right way to progress further. Let’s not waste much time now and let’s begin!
I hope you have made an observation based on the above pointers. Next answer the following questions for me –
-
Do I look like someone who owns the space I am standing?
-
Would someone be interested in talking to me if I look like this?
-
Do I look friendly, happy, or welcoming?
-
Do I look like someone who is lost in thoughts?
-
Would people come to be with their queries?
-
Is my posture composed?
-
Am I giving a wrong message to the people? (You can try this question to analyse your emotional reaction too.)
Improving body language takes practice. Engage in public speaking events or group discussions to refine your non-verbal communication skills. Regular practice and observation plays great deal in all of it. Join our WhatsApp community to gain access – https://chat.whatsapp.com/C5QzNEHqeHG4LmaoEqPaCm
