Next time you shake your hands with a person, make sure you have warm hands. The gesture makes you appear more inviting than cold handed. For instance, you could get better chances at a job interview. :)

  • KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE BUT YOUR ENEMIES CLOSER

Imagine your boss is going to go off on you in a meeting. Most people would try to sit as far as they can. But, you should consider sitting right next to your superior. He will subconsciously feel uncomfortable being aggressive when there are other people around. They will eventually take it easier on you. :)

  • STARGAZING

Do you ever wanted to clear tube or airport terminal? I will teach you the magic! In a crowd, you should always look right in the direction you intend to go. People will eventually avoid you and make you a magical clear path. The phenomenon is easily explainable. In busy areas, people tend to observe others eyes to predict which way the will go in order to avoid them. So tomorrow remind yourself and gaze upon your way. :)

  • SAME THOUGHTS

You want to convince your parents to buy you something? Well, read on. While you are talking or asking somebody to do you a favor simply NOD. Yes, that simple it is. Just nod while you are talking. They will subconsciously start to agree with you, cause it convinces them that what you are saying is true. Try it. :)

  • DADDY TEACH ME

If you want people to take you seriously you should always remember your childhood. Or maybe not. When you want to be taken for a serious and correct person you should always say that what you are saying your father taught you. People tend to take information more seriously if the statement is linked to a father. :)
