““ BODY LANGUAGE Body language tells other people about your feelings before you even open your mouth. It conveys to others how receptive you are to communicating with them. A friendly first impression leaves room for social success. But an unfriendly first impression may mean there is no second chance with that person or in that situation. Of course, the impression you give is only half the picture. There are actually two components to developing body language as a social skill: First, you must learn to project a friendly, open image to others, second, you must develop the ability to read another person’s nonverbal behavioral signals, a much more challenging skill.””
