It is quite true that you may appear to any occasion in dressed attractively and appropriately but it can take hardly 30 seconds to smash your image by displaying wrong attitude and body language.
Yes it is true by the well groomed dress code and stylizing make up you can create an initial impression but as long as you start communicating with others it will be displaying your images and any kind of wrong attitude and behavior, like shift your glance back and forth, fiddle with your ring, slump down in a chair, pick your fingernail, nod your head repeatedly or cross and uncross your legs can spoil all the attractive impression in a dull impression. Body language refers to a wide range of Nonverbal communication where few things matters a lot like the way you walk, the way you stand, your facial expression your hand gesture etc., your body posture at the surrounding places.
Body language is an integrated study. It helps you to get the meaning of the messages of the other person’s body movements. It also helps you to know what other person is thinking about you through their attitude. It is more interesting that if you are noticing some person’s body language to judge his mental state similarly other person is also judging you in the same way so by this way this communication is getting importance in today’s world.
Body language is closely related with your mental state, whatever comes in your mind or plays in your mind it automatically reflects to your activity. Like if you are over exited your energy level will go high, you can do an act of screaming or can show a big happiness on your face. Suppose you are mentally very rigid on some matters your movement will be tight, your voice will be hard. And by reading of this type of body languages the person in front of you can understand what’s going in your mind.
Sometimes body languages become more accountable than the spoken words. May a person is speaking according to the environment of for the sake of critical situation but his body languages shows the actual state of his mind. For example if a person is saying loudly “Yes, I’d love to,” but he is having a lean shoulders and a sagging head then it means he is trying to hide something behind his willingness. Same way if a person is saying “No, I am not angry with you,” though the person’s face is red, eyes are extensive, and neck veins are swelling. Or suppose in front of a speaker someone is watching his watch or yawning and saying “Yes, carry on please,” it means he is trying to suppress his boredom. By following this body languages one can easily understand the person’s feeling or the mental state.
On other side if two persons are arguing in a very fire mood but their body still is in relax mode then it indicates that though they are having different opinion still their relationship are well maintained.
Body language is actually unconscious or subconscious, and most of the people are not aware about their own body languages, their gesture and their posture in every day situation, and what messages it carries to others, but one can learn it, control it and modify it. Like nail bitter can control their habits, Foot tapper, Lip bitter can control their nervous habits, those are having to seat in lean posture they can start seat straight.
It is very much important to you to control your body language to communicate with others by properly showing your feeling as you are using proper words to express your thoughts.
