Rehearse being the Super Somebody you want to be
ahead of time. SEE yourself walking around with Hang
by Your Teeth posture, shaking hands, smiling the
Flooding Smile, and making Sticky Eyes. HEAR yourself chatting comfortably with everyone. FEEL the
pleasure of knowing you are in peak form and everyone
is gravitating toward you. VISUALIZE yourself a Super
Somebody. Then it all happens automatically
these first moments like a rocket taking off. When the folks at
Cape Kennedy aim a spacecraft for the moon, a mistake in the
millionth of a degree at the beginning, when the craft is still on
the ground, means missing the moon by thousands of miles. Likewise, a tiny body-language blooper at the outset of a relationship
may mean you will never make a hit with that person. But with
The Flooding Smile, Sticky Eyes, Epoxy Eyes, Hang by Your
Teeth, The Big-Baby Pivot, Hello Old Friend, Limit the Fidget,
Hans's Horse Sense, and Watch the Scene Before You Make the
Scene, you'll be right on course to get whatever you eventually
want from anybody—be it business, friendship, or love.
We now move from the silent world to the spoken word.
