According to a research, 93% of the impression you leave on people is based on your body language, and 7% of the impression is based on what you say.
The extra-ordinary elite people naturally attract others. They keep others interested in them with the power of their body language. Elite people know very well that the words that come out of mouth aren't virtually as valuable as body language. And, others unconsciously make tons of urgent guesses about you within the first few seconds of meeting.
That's why elite people build attraction rapidly. They know very well that body language and attraction is not only about standing straight or steady eye contact.
"It's all about connecting to people within a few minutes of meeting them."
If you want to be an 'Elite Person' then you need to connect to people with the power of your body language. Because, if there isn't any connection, then there isn't any attraction.
So, how to connect with people like an elite person with the power of your body language? I've arranged 43 body language tips for you that will help you to attract others and create a hypnotic impact on them.
1. Nod Your Head
Keep nodding your head slowly while talking to others. It helps others calm down and show understanding. People want to feel 'IMPORTANT'. When you nod your head while listening, it not only makes them feel important but also connected to you. It's literally the quickest way to connect with others... without even saying a single word.
Moreover, you can also lightly 'Rub your Chin' while listening. This bright gesture displays that the listener is focused on every word you are saying.
2. Authoritative Gaze
What is the secret of Elite Leaders? Why they always look so commanding? Well, it is because they use Business/Authoritative Gaze. If you want to be 'AUTHORITATIVE' and 'IMPORTANT' then use the Authoritative Gaze.
What is Authoritative gaze?
The person whose eye level is highest is mostly considered as the leader. "Keep your line of vision in the area from the eyes to the mid-forehead". Elite people and leaders use this authoritative gaze in order to put themselves in a clear position of the Authority. That's why people always give them special attention and respect.
In a group, successful leaders and entrepreneurs must use this authoritative gaze for proving their 'Elite Status'.
3. Running Your Fingers Through Your Hair
People commonly run their fingers through their hair when they don't know what to say. The viewer who can study body-language knows the person is lacking in confidence. And, he doesn't know what to do or say next. So, always avoid running your fingers through their hairs - especially in business meetings, or in social gatherings.
Playing with your hair is completely different. In dating, it's a sign of flirt and attraction.
