h<strong>and</strong>s can be your worst enemy so try <strong>and</strong> keep them calm<br />
<strong>and</strong> steady, for e.g. crossing your arms is a very protective posture<br />
done normally when you are cold, nervous or on guard.<br />
Same goes with your legs, avoid rapid leg vibration whilst<br />
seated. Thirdly, make sure you keep your eyes in level while<br />
talking to someone, especially if it is a lady, if you are trying to<br />
get a quick stare at her it portrays you in bad light. Even whilst<br />
walking down the corridor at work keep your eyes straight in<br />
line of your direction, distracted vision makes you look disinterested.<br />
Fourthly, a firm h<strong>and</strong>shake<br />
is an absolute golden rule of body<br />
language. Don’t be the guy whose<br />
h<strong>and</strong> shake is like holding a ‘palm<br />
full of dead fish’, instead always grip<br />
the other person’s h<strong>and</strong> firmly <strong>and</strong><br />
confidently. And lastly, always smile...<br />
an important body language pointer.<br />
Remember, confident people smile<br />
because they have nothing to worry<br />
about.<br />
SPRING CLEAN<br />
A very apt point, it is a space meant<br />
for fresh starts. Spring cleaning is a<br />
good time to let go of all your old,<br />
over-grown, faded, ill-fitting clothes.<br />
It also helps you to want to lose<br />
weight, de-stress <strong>and</strong> get into the colours<br />
<strong>and</strong> frame that give that ‘WOW’<br />
factor. And you can always donate<br />
these clothes to those in need <strong>and</strong><br />
feel happy for your good deed done.<br />
NEW DATE GAME<br />
Do a little research before taking a<br />
girl out on a date, locate a place which is not too crowded or<br />
lonely, <strong>and</strong> try not to look at your phone while on your date.<br />
Keep the dialogue interactive, monologues are boring so<br />
don’t boast.<br />
Do not try to be over-baring; space in any relationship is a<br />
huge imperative. ‘Communication is the mother of good relationships’,<br />
so keep it flowing even after the first date. Make<br />
sure your chemistry is spot on.<br />
PAD TOUCHES<br />
To look good your surroundings should also look the same, a<br />
clean <strong>and</strong> organised home is a reflection of yourself. A renovation<br />
can be time-consuming, but there are always other tips<br />
to help you de-clutter your pad <strong>and</strong> make it worth living in.<br />
Here are your tips to de-clutter:-<br />
• Set a goal<br />
• Three box method (Keep, Get rid of, <strong>and</strong> Storage)<br />
• Have a garage sale<br />
Buy something new for your<br />
abode, which will help you<br />
transform the look <strong>and</strong> the<br />
feel of your home like a wall<br />
clock or a vintage painting, a<br />
lampshade which gives the<br />
room a dual lighting effect.<br />
These small changes can be<br />
of great use to you <strong>and</strong> your<br />
pad.<br />
STAND – UP TALL<br />
Posture is the first sign of the<br />
sort of person you really are<br />
even before you talk or shake<br />
h<strong>and</strong>s. Try as much to st<strong>and</strong><br />
up straight <strong>and</strong> tall as a good<br />
posture helps your spine to<br />
a big extent. Slouching leads<br />
to your belly jutting out <strong>and</strong><br />
a very lazy stance. A tip to<br />
correct your posture, st<strong>and</strong><br />
straight up <strong>and</strong> walk erect<br />
is by walking with a book<br />
placed on your head.<br />
Hope these tips make you the look, feel, <strong>and</strong> believe that<br />
nothing is impossible.... Remember an ‘original is always better<br />
than a copy’.<br />
