Thoughts for Memorial Day

 As we celebrate this Memorial Day, I thought I’d share with you a very special thought:

“But the freedom that they fought for and the country grand they wrought for,

The greatest glory of a free-born people is to transmit that freedom to their children.”

William Havard

My friends, as you remember the sacrifices that have been made to secure our freedoms, have a safe and blessed Memorial Day – make it special!

Enjoy this day with your friends and family – appreciate and “ride every stride”!

Body Language

Body language is not just how we hold and move our bodies…it also encompasses:

• How we position our bodies when sitting, standing, leaning…
• Our closeness to others, the space between others, and us and how it changes
• Our facial expressions
• Our eyes especially and how we move and focus them (are you an “eye-roller”???)
• How we touch others and ourselves in a conversation
• How our bodies connect with things like pens, cigarettes, spectacles, clothing, furniture, etc.
• Our breathing, our heartbeats and perspiration
• Our voices…very important!  The pace, pitch, volume, variation, pauses, intonation…

Body Language is especially crucial when you’re meeting someone for the first time! We form our opinions of someone we meet for the first time in just a few seconds, and this initial instinctual assessment is based much more on what we see and feel about the other person than on the words they speak!  On many occasions we form a strong view about someone before they can speak even a single word! And remember…this works both ways!

  

When you understand the importance of body language – you have a gift that will give you a significant advantage in life – professionally and personally!

Body Language is a powerful concept that successful people tend to understand very well.  Make it work for you…with HorsePower!
