People See You Before They Hear You

We say not to judge a book by its cover, and in a perfect world, we could trust that others would abide by that simple advice. Unfortunately, we don’t live in a perfect world, and so, we often find ourselves judged by our appearance before we’re even able to say a word. Knowing this, what are we to do? How can we ensure we’re not written off before we’re even able to say a word in our defense?

People do indeed see you before they ever get to hear you. So it’s imperative that you make that first impression count, as soon as you step into a room. Join Dr. Mark Lantz on this Motivational Monday as he takes a look at one of the fastest judgements people make and how you can leverage that time to make the most of your first impression.
