Wright - Body Language 101: Expert Advice on How to Detect Body Language Signs of Lying (Body Language, Body Language for Dummies, Body Language Book)

What does communication mean to you?

Most people never consider such a question. Communication is words and ideas and how we share them, right? We talk to one another when we pass on the street, we call each other on the telephone, we text our friends, send emails to our cousins, and write letters home to mom and dad. While the technology has changed dramatically in the last quarter century, most people would say that we still communicate primarily with our words.

What if you were to one day find out about a learnable and teachable technique that will allow you to know more about most people from simply watching them than any amount of conversation could possibly teach you?

Sounds crazy, right?

The really crazy part, though, it exists, and it's not just some crazy hocus pocus! It's science! In fact, people have probably applied this very science to you sometime recently. Remember the last big job interview that you aced? The interviewer knew you were right for the position before you ever even sat down. Ever marveled at how the police are able to get confessions out of even the most hardened criminals?

Have you wondered how that great server at your favorite diner knows exactly when you need your coffee topped off? All of those people are practicing the same science that we're talking about. What do they all have in common? Just like you, they're not scientists!

It's all about learning the science of body language. We usually don't even consider what our bodies are doing when we are saying words, but hidden in the way we sit, the way we shake hands, and the way we look at the people we're talking to are secrets about what we're really feeling on the inside.

Have you ever heard the old saying, "Your smile betrays your true feelings?" Not only is that true, but so does the direction your toes point while sitting and talking, where you place your hands when sitting across a desk from somebody, or even how you gesture with your hands!

Imagine being able to learn all of those tell-tale signs and having the ability to know what the person that you're talking to truly means. Wouldn't that be empowering? Think about how confident you'd become, knowing that the new person you're dating was lying about where they were last night when they missed dinner. I bet you can think of a situation right now where simply knowing in advance that a business partner, spouse, coworker, friend, or relative wasn't telling the truth could've saved you a boatload of hassle.

Imagine the freedom that will come with learning this new skill, making it second nature, and being able to use it literally every single time you speak with another person for the rest of your life .

That's some powerful stuff, right?

All of that and more is possible if you simply read and absorb the information and advice in this book. Within these pages, you will learn exactly how to tell when somebody is acting nervously, without confidence, or dishonestly, simply by interpreting their body movements and facial expressions. If you're ready to empower yourself with that kind of tool, then read on!
