When it seems that the whole world is against you, remember that the plane does not take off with the wind, but against it.

Ropes of trust

Trust is the most valuable currency. But have you ever wondered why when communicating with a stranger there is awkwardness? The reason is the subconscious tendency of people to evaluate others for a threat. And two steps will help melt the ice.

Stage one - smile and gestures. It is clear with a smile, and gestures are "green" and "red" non-verbal signals.

“Red”, for example, is arms folded on the chest, legs crossed. "Green" - imitation of the interlocutor, open palms.

Stage two is the ability to listen. It is necessary to encourage the interlocutor to speak and keep this desire. If you nod and listen, the narrator will become more confident. This is how the foundation of trust is laid.

When communicating, these two stages will help to arrange a stranger to yourself. However, the long-term and effectiveness of communication depends on your interests and points of contact.

However, sensible body language and good listening skills won't alienate a new person. And what your interaction will lead to, only time will tell.
