First Impression - Lasting Impression

Communication is hands down the most important thing needed to connect people to one another.

First impressions on the other hand are people’s first opinion of you. It is shown to be very hard to change even though it may or may not be true. It takes less than 3 seconds for other people to evaluate you when you meet each other for the first time. In this short of time, the other individual forms estimation based on:

• Your appearance
• The way you dressed
• Your body language
• Your demeanour
• Your mannerisms

All these examples are the list of things that affect a person’s judgement whether you are actually making an impact on him or her.

If it does give a good impact, then you are on the right track they might thing that you are in fact giving a good first impression.

If it doesn’t, then it’s a bad news for you as you did not make a good impression on them, they might not even consider being friends with you, and that my friend would be a total loss if you are actually trying to tackle that special someone.

Here's a video on making a good impression.
