Words Communicate Very Small Part Of Our Messages:
Body language can be defined as the method of communicating our meaning that we do not say with words. Less than 10% of our communication takes place when we use words. The rest of the messages are conveyed with the help of body language. So, we can say that this unspoken communication speaks for us more than what we try to speak with when we use words. Analyzing body language is not an easy task because it is completely different from things like math and science.
A Smiling Face Can Make A Big Difference:
However, here we will try to discuss some important aspects of body language and try to generalize some basic interpretations so that we can understand more about this unspoken mode of speaking. Let us start with the smile first. Everybody loves a smiling face. How to bring the smile on your face? Experts suggest to think about someone or somethingthat you like very much, such as your best friend or favorite pet and the smile automatically comes to your face, improving your body language.
Eye Contact:
The next point that comes when we discuss the different aspects of body language is the eyes. In fact, eye contact is the most important part of body language. Speaking to someone without making proper eye contact creates doubt about your intentions in the mind of the listener. He may feel through your body language that you are trying to hide the facts and are not being honest. So, maintain eye contact in a sober manner with the other person. What should you do when talking with a group of people? Start with making eye contact with one person and then move slowly to other members of the group, covering every single person in the process.
Attention Span And Attention Directions:
Another important aspect of body language is attention. Here both the span of the attention and the direction of the attention are important. Your attention span is an indicator of your attitude toward other people. A wandering attention span may make the other person disinterested in you. It is true for the attention direction also. You should try to sit or stand, while conversing with a group, in a manner that you do not the block of view of any person in the group. If you ignore this, then people may feel that you are a rude and thoughtless person. So take care of every single person in the group and maintain the dignity of all the members of the group.
