<strong>The</strong> advantage <strong>of</strong> Being Taller<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are many people who speak about how exactly to the <strong>benefits</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>growing</strong> <strong>taller</strong> but you may<br />

ask: what's the good thing about being <strong>taller</strong>? Aren't my ability and personality a lot more<br />

important? Why should I make use <strong>of</strong> getting <strong>taller</strong>?<br />

Of course, you are right that your ability and personality are definitely more important than your<br />

height. After all, most job listings never list your height as a requirement. But they do list your<br />

ability and personality traits as requirements.<br />

But make no mistake: your height does affect someones perception <strong>of</strong> you, whether they admit it or<br />

not. People perceive tall people as being more knowledgeable and trusted, check<br />

<strong>The</strong>re is a study that confirms this. <strong>The</strong> participants were asked to idea the height <strong>of</strong> a particular<br />

person. <strong>The</strong>y were also given some details <strong>of</strong> that person. One group <strong>of</strong> participants was given the<br />

details that describe the person as someone with high authority. <strong>The</strong> other group was given detail<br />

that describe the person as an average person. What happened then? <strong>The</strong> group that thought that the<br />

person is respected estimated the person's elevation way more than the actual height. <strong>The</strong> opposite<br />

happened with the group that thought the person was just an average person. <strong>The</strong>y estimated the<br />

elevation to be less.<br />

This study shows that folks understand <strong>taller</strong> people with more positive characteristics. This will<br />

likely give you <strong>benefits</strong> in your job as many people create their first impressions about you<br />

unconsciously. In that situation, your height could make the difference between creating a positive<br />

and an average impression. Which one do you want?<br />

Of course, your height is not everything. <strong>The</strong>re are many other activities that are more important.<br />

But once you have a chance to get higher then why not use it? <strong>The</strong>re's no harm in trying to enhance<br />

the first opinions you may get from others.
