Make The First Impression Count
First impressions can be quite important,
as when we meet someone for the first time, our initial impression of the new
person, creates a mental image of his or her personality in our minds. This
image is often long-lasting and not easily changed once created in our minds. A
good or great first impression can create a positive role in the minds of the
new people we meet. When we meet them again, we are often drawn back into this
role. Sometimes it happens almost unconsciously and though you may not always
be drawn back into that role, it sure is better to be positively perceived
rather negatively.
To help ensure you make a good first
impression every time, you should be conscious and aware of how you are coming
across to another person. A good tip is to imagine that the person you have
just met and are talking to is one of your best friends. You’ll probably adjust
unconsciously and become more relaxed, as well as use open body-language to
convey friendliness and a warm and welcoming demeanour. Smile. Don’t cross your
arms or legs. Turn your body towards the people you’re are shaking hands with
or talking to so that your body language is friendly and open.
Put some effort into making a good first
impression when meeting people for the first time. If you do, you will find
that you are able to build stronger relationships with others, and will be much
better regarded overall. Creator Academy can help you improve
