But the way it is presented either multiplies that value, or takes away from itPersuasion is a learnable thingHuman communication is 45% tone of voice, 45% body language, and only 10% wordsBody language has a way of slipping under the radar, and going right to the unconscious mind and creating a gut reactionWhen someone makes their first impression of you, they should be thinking:This person is sharp as a tacThis person is enthusiasticThis person is an expert in the fieldIf you make a bad first impression, it takes 7 subsequent meetings to turn that aroundWhen you’re perceived as an expert, it gives you the opportunity to control the flow of the conversationThe first stage of confidence comes from acting as ifStudy the best, in detail, to model it and eventually become itResilience has to do with the fundamental belief that you have what it takes to be successfulOnce you learn how to communicate, it changes who you are, and you become the successful person you could beWithout fear, there is no courageObjections are nothing more than smoke-screens for uncertainty TaiLopez.com/Wolf
