What types of things about people give off a good first impression? There are many things people can do to give off a good first impression. Firstly, the way you dress. If the way you dress is neat, clean and lovely then people will have in their minds a good first impression of you. Why? When you are dressed neatly people will have the image in their head that you are an organized and tidy person. When you are clean people will deduce that your environment at home and at the workplace as well as your own person is clean as well, that will immediately draw attention to you. A clean person is much respected because that means that they take care of themselves and the people around them. And also when you dress in a lovely manner, be you man or woman that will draw attention because human beings tend to look at everything that is beautiful; so if you dress in a way that is lovely and that you look elegant you will catch the eye of spectators. Spectators will have a variation of feelings, but the primordial feeling they will get from you is that you are attentive to your own self and take care of you.
How about a bad first impression? Another thing that is important to know is that people judge you in the first 7 seconds after knowing you so manners are very important. If you come into the office giving everyone you don’t know fist pumps people might think that you might be a show off or that you own the place and people might try to avoid you for giving off the wrong impression. It’s essential to know the etiquette and codes of each place to use the right mannerisms. Also, body language is essential when you meet new people. The way you carry yourself; the way you sit, stand, and walk tells people how you take care of yourself. If you slouch around, you will create the impression that you are a person that abandons herself, that doesn’t care about her body or well being. People will think you’ve neglected yourself and your body.
