How can I improve my first impressions
When people first see me they make an impression. How can I improve this?
This will also help me remember it. Too often people tell me their name and before long I've forgotten it. People like when you use their name, you remember, they feel like they matter, win win. I was going to say watch my jokes, but I think being myself and joking about anything will give them a better impression of who I really am. Someone who cares, but will joke around any subject.
Everyone loves a good joke. 3. Learn easy magic tricks
Amaze them and they'll leave with a great first impression of you.4. Allow them to be silly
Good or bad, if you sing a song others can sing along too, they'll love you. Or just sing something noone else sings. If you can't be compared you'll look better.
My go to songs - 500 miles, Staceys mom, all star Lead the group in doing something. Organise the next event. Get everyone to play a game. Be the host of a group conversation. Ask questions. Get to know people. People love talking about themselves, give them a reason too and they'll end up leaving loving you. Share something or get them to share something with you. A secret, book, food, drink. Ask them to help you with something small, but meaningful.
What you should wear, what your profile pic should be, how you should ask out your crush, the best place to take a date, new restaurants worth visiting ect.
We help those we like. When we help, we matter. If you make someone matter, they'll really like you. Agree with them. Even if the core of what you're talking about is a disagreement, focus on what you do agree on. Even the most heated debates can end with you being friends
Eg. Abortion. I agree, abortion shouldn't be the first option woman jump too. Messures can be taken beforehand to reduce it ever being an option. (disagree, but you're focusing on areas you do agree on, or atleast showing you understand their side). Find something that you can all laugh at. Laughing bonds us quickly and easily.
You gotta feel people out. One joke may not work on one person, and would be a massive hit with another.
Thanks for sharing.
Not everyone is aware and go off their 'gut reaction', hence this list. Allowing them to get a good gut reaction right from the start.
