As you work toward your desired goal, practices that enhance your strengths and help you reach your goals deserve special attention. Travis, who holds a double doctorate in clinical psychology and industrial-organizational psychology. Travis Bradberry wrote on Linkedin that there are 9 tips for understanding what other people are thinking unspoken and further making people like you and your offer:

1. People make eye contact with those they feel closest to

When a group of people laughs together, people can't help but exchange glances with those closest to them. If you discover this secret, you can easily find out who in a group is more closely related to whom . This also means that you can make more eye contact with the person you want to build an intimate relationship with.

2. Ask others to help and they will like you more

When asking for help, the other party will give a reason for their willingness to help, such as "he is my friend", "I like him"...etc. In other words, when you ask the other person to lend a hand, you will not only get help, but also deepen the other person's recognition of you and like you more than before.

3. Stick to silence, but you will get answers

When a question is asked and the other person does not respond, there is no need to be aggressive. Silence makes the other person think they should speak up. It's like playing a ball game, when the ball is on the opponent's court, they have to hit it.

4. The open-hand gesture builds the trust of others

There is an employee policy at LEGOLAND: Whenever a guest asks where the facility is, they are to show the way with their fingers together and palms out. Because the open palm gesture conveys trust, makes it easier for others to believe, and makes you feel friendly and likable.

5. Unfinished things are easier to remember

Many YouTube ads only broadcast the first part of the story, not the entire story, because humans are more likely to remember things that are not completed, known as the "Zeigarnik effect" (Zeigarnik effect). In addition to attracting consumers to look for the full version, advertisements that do not end will also stay in people's minds for a longer time.

6. The direction of people's toes shows their attention

If the listener's toes are facing you, it means that they are interested in you and are listening to you carefully; if their toes are not facing you, it means that they are likely to be impatient, and their hearts have flown 100 meters away. .

7. When meeting a new friend, call his name a few times

When meeting a new friend, repeating the new friend's name 3 times within the first 5 minutes of the conversation will make it easier to remember the new friend's name and he will feel respected. You can use sentences such as "Hello, (name)," "(name), nice to meet you", "Where are you from, (name)?"

8. Nodding in conversation makes it easier for others to agree with what you say

People unconsciously imitate the body language of those around them. Therefore, when you add a nod when speaking, in addition to conveying the truth of what you are saying, the listeners will also be infected by your body movements, making it easier to agree with your point of view.

9. Showing energy in conversations will make people like you

It's very similar to the previous point, by showing a positive, interested look when you're talking to someone, the other person's emotions will get excited and reflect energy back into you. This technique can give others a strong and good first impression of you, and you can use it a lot.

If you can integrate these 9 skills with your life and apply them in various social and interactive situations, you may silently make many more friends, or make your friends trust and like you more!
