10 CONFIDENT

BODY LANGUAGE
CUES
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD USE
1.
DON’T
TOUCH…
WHEN WOMEN ARE NERVOUS,
THEY TEND TO TUCK THEIR HAIR,
EARS, JEWELRY. THESE ARE LOW
CONFIDENCE GESTURES
2.
DON’T PURSE
BLOCK
PURSE BLOCKING IS WHEN YOU
HOLD YOUR PURSE IN FRONT OF
YOUR BODY. IT SHOWS THAT YOU
FEEL ANXIOUS AND UNSURE
3.
DON’T
OVERNOD
WHEN WOMAN WANTS TO SHOW
AGREEMENT SHE NODS AS THE
OTHER PERSON SPEAKS. THIS LOOKS
LIKE A BOBBLEHEAD DOLL.
BE SURE TO NOD ONLY WHEN YOU
REALLY AGREE WITH SOMEONE, NOT
BY DEFAULT
4.
CARRY ONE
ITEM
PEOPLE WHO CARRY MORE THAN ONE ITEM—
LIKE A PURSE AND A BRIEFCASE OR A
BRIEFCASE AND A COAT— ARE PERCEIVED TO
BE LESS ORGANIZED AND MORE FORGETFUL.
LOWER-STATUS PEOPLE ALSO CARRY BULKY
BRIEFCASES, SIGNALING THEY HAVE LOTS OF
WORK TO DO
5.
CLAIM YOUR
TERRITORY
WHEN WOMEN ARE NERVOUS, THEY
TEND TO TAKE UP AS LITTLE SPACE AS
POSSIBLE—CROSSING THEIR LEGS AND
TUCKING THEIR ARMS INTO THE CHAIR
OR FOLDING THEM OVER THEIR CHEST -
BUT THIS LOOKS WEAK
6.
USE YOUR
GOOD SIDE
A PSYCHOLOGICAL TRICK - MANY
PEOPLE FEEL CONFIDENT WHEN
TALKING TO PEOPLE ON ONE SIDE,
WHILE CHATTING WITH A PERSON ON
THEIR OTHER SIDE MAY MAKE THEM
FEEL WEAK AND ANXIOUS
7.
A GOOD EYE
CONTACT
DO YOU LOOK AT OTHERS ENOUGH
DURING A CONVERSATION? EYE
CONTACT IS A SUREFIRE WAY TO SHOW
CONFIDENCE.
NERVOUS WOMEN DON’T MAKE
ENOUGH EYE CONTACT, AND THIS CAN
BE A DEAL BREAKER THAT SAYS, “I’M
UNCONFIDENT!”
8.
SUPERWOMAN
POSE
INSTEAD OF PLASTERING A SMILE ON
YOUR FACE, SAVE YOUR PEARLY
WHITES FOR WHEN YOU FIRST MEET
SOMEONE AND WHEN YOU
ACTUALLY FIND SOMETHING
AGREEABLE. THIS WILL MAKE PEOPLE
APPRECIATE YOUR GORGEOUS GRIN
9.
DON’T FAKE
SMILE
WOMEN HAVE BEEN TAUGHT
FROM A YOUNG AGE TO “SMILE
AND NOD”. THE PROBLEM IS
FAKE SMILING IS NOT ONLY A
SIGN OF WEAKNESS, BUT IT’S
ALSO DISINGENUOUS

FAKE SMILE REAL SMILE

10.
BE FULL
FRONTAL
THE FULL FRONTAL GESTURE IS
USED BY THE MOST CONFIDENT
PERSON IN THE ROOM.

THIS IS APOSE IS WHEN YOUR

NECK, BELLY, AND PRIVATES ARE
NOT BEING BLOCKED
