Communication can be expressed in three different ways, Words, tone and non-verbal.
Did you know that even when we are not trying to communicate, we are communicating? We have all felt the non-verbal cues from others, that have great meaning. A look between two girls as a cute guy walks in the room. A group of friends sharing a look at a funny joke a teacher says. Or a married couple communicating with facial expressions when, someone is selling something at their door. Communication is not limited to Words, in fact, during the average day we use,
14% of words
35% Tone
51% Non-verbal
Words have the lowest percentage! What messages are you sending out to others?
One way to send out positive messages with you body languages is to find someone that you admire, who you think is friendly and welcoming to everyone. Watch them! Try to observe how the move, when they move that makes others feel so comfortable.
Here are a few quotes that I found!
I speak two languages, Body and English. - Mae West
Not only is her body language revealing, but so are her silences, which I find remarkable for an actress. It's how she doesn't say things verbally that I find exceedingly communicative. - Laurence Kardish
