Tip to maintaining a certain level of satisfaction and happiness:

Focus on anything you did well.

Remind yourself how great the results of your work have been; constantly remind yourself of your skills and abilities.

By doing so, you not only force your brain to focus on positives but you also build a stronger self-image.

This is how you do positive self-talk.

Even a "I did my best" is better than "I should have done better"

The former expresses gratitude, the second expresses remorse.

Your brain feels those words and weighs them heavily.

Handwriting and Personality Traits

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I have a passion for body language. Besides my own conclusions on the topic, I’ve found myself researching and reading a lot of material related to body language.

One of the very interesting topics that I stumbled on during my readings is the personality signs and tendencies hidden in people’s handwriting. As much as I believe this to be pseudo-science, I’ve come to realize that I was wrong. These things are used in crime investigations and also by mentalists and psychologist in their analysis of their subjects.

Here are a few things to know about what someone’s handwriting tells you about them:

1- Letter & Word Spacing:

The more space you put between your letters or words, the more likely you are to value freedom and personal space. Someone who deliberately takes space on the paper they’re writing on is someone who values their own independence and freedom. As such, they take all the space they find free. It just makes sense. This can also indicate an ease in verbal communication and expression of their ideas as they are comfortable with expanding in big size whatever they have in mind.

As opposed to someone who leaves little space between their words. This second category of people are either highly intrusive and don’t value other people’s boundaries, or very reserved and shy. The logic behind the former is that people who don’t value free space between their words also don’t value other people’s personal space. As for the latter, the unwillingness to impose themselves and take as much space as they want indicates a lack of self-confidence and/or a lack of confidence in their ability to formulate their ideas. As a result, they will take as little space as they can so that none of the words they write can standout to the reader. It’s a sign they are not comfortable with exposing their ideas and having other people read their writing.

2- Pen Pressure and Weight of Writing:

This is a tricky one.

Because this can vary depending on situations and not on individuals.

Although there are general patterns from which one can draw conclusions.

Generally, the higher the pressure applied on the pen & more weight on the writing, the higher the likelihood of the person being tense and stressed. This can indicate feelings of anxiety and discomfort that the person expresses through their writing as a coping mechanism for what they feel inside.

Oppositely, a light pressure and weight indicate a higher sense of empathy and sensitivity. The unwillingness to apply pen pressure is sometimes a sign that the person is light hearted and highly emotional; although it does not express any sign of negative emotion.

3- Dots on I's

This a straightforward one.

The higher the emphasis on the dot and distance between the letter and the dot, the higher the sense of creativity and detail. People who take a pause to properly dot their I’s are generally people who care about aesthetics and details; as opposed to people who will not put much thought and effort into doting their I’s; whom are usually less creative and more pragmatic. The former cares about the presentation of the idea, the latter cares about the effectiveness in expressing their idea.

A way to confirm this is by debating with both types of people.

While the creative ones will try and use the most fancy words and make their sentences sound pleasing, the pragmatic ones will tend to be more conclusion oriented and care less about their choice of words.

I had doubts about this one, until I tried it (yes I do random experiments on people to better understand human nature, so should you.)

4- Readability of Signature:

The easier it is to read and replicate someone’s signature, the more likely it is that said person is not only highly confident but also comfortable in expressing their ideas. The signature being easy to read is a sign of willingness to be exposed and somehow a willingness to be remembered.

As opposed to people with a very complex signature, whom, on the other hand, value their privacy and are not willing to expose their thoughts and express them.

A general rule is that the ease of reading someone’s signature will often define the person’s introversion or extraversion tendencies.

PS: It’s important to note that these general rules are reliable BUT they do not tell the whole truth. I’ve been hesitating to share this with you as I know some people could rely on solely handwriting to analyze others. As I always say, one sign alone is not enough to reach conclusions about someone. It’s through gathering many clues that you can put together a puzzle. It’s a fun game but it’s also a dangerous one if you’re highly judgmental as you could eventually reach the wrong conclusions.

Also a side note, someone who’s in a uncomfortable position and situation of stress (either being pressured or simply getting caught in a lie) will change their handwriting drastically in a subconscious attempt to be deceptive. Although they themselves could be unaware of what they are doing.

Mirror Gazing: Why & How? No, this is not some psychopathic practice done by crazy people and narcissists who can’t stop looking at themselves. What I’m about to explain to you is a meditation practice that has been proven to help increase self-esteem and…
Visualization Meditation:

“He sees himself winning, smells the air, tastes the water, hears the sounds…”

-Michael Phelps’ coach, the most successful Olympian athlete with 28 medals including 23 gold ones.

This is just to show you that visualization is widely used and is proven to work.

Anyway, let’s now start.

What is visualization meditation?

It’s picturing a specific image in your mind, a picture that is not a memory but rather made out your own imagination and creativity. Visualization has two main uses and they’re the following:

1- Picturing a desired outcome through exercises of projection visualization

2- Improving memory through exercises of memorization visualization

For those who have never tried it, it’s better to start with the latter before trying to move on to number 1.

Reason being, memorization is far easier for beginners and will allow you to get better at visualization and bypass the difficulties you might face when trying to do projection visualization.

But first let’s make the distinction between both methods.

Memorization Visualization:

This consists of focusing on an existing object (whatever it is, you’ll often find examples using apples or candles), then closing your eyes and trying to remember details of said object.

What’s the point, you might ask?

The main goal of this exercise is to improve your visualization skills but not only. This also helps increase your sense of detail and memorization abilities.

What might seem as an easy exercise at first might be difficult for those that lack creativity.

I started with this type of visualization because it is necessary to get better at it before moving to the type that interests us today.

Which brings us to our homework.

I’d like you to take 10 minutes of your days and find a comfortable and quiet spot.

- Pick any object you want (preferably not your phone, keep it away to reduce distractions).
- Hold it and focus on analyzing every little detail of it for about a minute or two.
- Now, put it down, close your eyes and visualize the object you were holding.
- Do so until the image becomes blurry. Then open your eyes and look at the object again for a few seconds.
- Close your eyes again and repeat this exercise 5 times.

If you repeat this exercise for a few days; you’ll notice that it will take longer and longer for your visualization to become a blurry image.

Your visualization skills are improving.

If you can reduce the times you look again to the object to 1 or 2 times in 10 minutes, you are ready for the next level of visualization.

Projection Visualization:

Just to be clear.

I will not be talking about astral projection or any of that.

I believe you don’t need that spiritual approach to be able to practice projection visualization, just a focused and creative mind.

This is why I’ve insisted on the first exercise, as that simple memorization exercise will raise your visualization abilities and your focus, thus allowing you to clearly picture images that you’ve never seen before.

Now this is often used to help motivate yourself and increase the likelihood of achieving your goals.

To do this, find a setup similar to the one described in the above exercise.

- Focus on one thing that you want to happen.
- Think of the place where you would ideally want to celebrate said event when it happens
- Now close your eyes and picture yourself (this is why the mirror gazing exercise is so important, and this is why improving your memorization visualization skill is necessary; they will both make this step much easier)
- Once you can see yourself, start adding context (refer to step 2; place and time)
- Stabilize this image in your mind.
- Ask yourself: How would I feel if this was real?
- Allow yourself to properly feel the positive emotions
- Every time the process become blurry or you lose focus, open your eyes and start again.

Another way to do so, is by using both mirror gazing and projection at the same time (refer to previous post).

To do so, you only need to practice mirror gazing, then at the end close your eyes and project yourself into the setting of your desired outcome.

This makes it a lot easier to picture yourself as you will be mixing all three exercises mentioned (mirror gazing; memorization and projection).

However, this last exercise, also it is the most efficient one, requires you to be comfortable with all three others. This is exactly why I didn’t start with it.

If you’ve never done one or any of those meditation practices, it’s important to practice and master all three before attempting to mix them into one.

Some of you might be thinking:

But how does this help me achieve my goals?

Legitimately.

Answer is, it doesn’t.

But it puts an idea in your mind, a strong image of success, something that is far more effective than any other techniques you might try to motivate yourself.

This works like a prophecy, where you force this image into your mind and you subconsciously start doing everything to make it happen.

Social fluency is learned.

If you’ve ever met a salesperson who you know was just killing it commission-wise, you’ll probably know
the feeling I refer to below.

They’ve got a certain smoothness about them that puts people at ease, and it feels like they can charm
their way into anyone’s good graces in record time.

This is some next level charisma and social fluency, because even though you’re aware they’re a
salesperson and have a singular goal in mind, they don’t appear like they’re selling anything at all… until
you return home with a shopping bag full of Gorilla Glue.

They just seem to have that it factor that draws people to them and allows them to adapt to any kind of
conversation signal from others.

Above all else, all of their behaviors and habits seem to flow so naturally …

Stop right there.

Yes, it’s amazingly tempting to believe that such people are just born with the gift of gab, and that you can
never attain those heights for yourself.

This is remarkably and completely wrong, and as I’ll discuss later, an all-too-common excuse we tell
ourselves. If you were to interview any of the people that you would label as possessing social fluency,

I’m positive that they would all tell you that it’s something they’ve worked on consciously.

Maybe it’s always been a strength of theirs, but that doesn’t mean that salesman just woke up with the
ability to sell ice to an eskimo.

There’s a reason that the salesman probably wasn’t young and green – more experience and practice, and practice makes perfect.

This is wonderful news for you because this is the exact reason you bought this book… in the hopes that
such skills were learnable, right?

To gain actionable items and steps to improve your social fluency?

Good, because social success is learned behavior.

I am not your competition.

Nobody is.

Everyone else is too busy fighting their wars.

Everyone has their problems to solve.

You only have one competition that is yourself.

If you can continuously outgrow yourself.

You stay on the right path forever.

A man's aim is always to get better, it is not a choice.

It is forced on you, you don't have many options.


Either you grind hard and evolve into a better you continuously or you lose.


Focus on yourself.

Everyone and everything else is less important.

Reposting: Manipulation through the body language

One important skill to master is triggering thoughts and emotions in your interlocutor without saying a word.

In this post, I will be breaking down a few tricks to make people crave your approval through body language.

Alternating disinterest and intense interest through eye contact:

A misconception people have is that when someone avoids eye contact, they're being weak and stressed.

That is completely false when taken out of context.

Body language is analyzed through a mix of signs not by drawing conclusions from one movement.

Fortunately, people don't draw conclusions as fast as we think. Their emotional side is the first one to react to body language.

Alternating intense eye contact with absence of it usually makes your interlocutor crave the moments of intensity.

One thing that always works is looking down to people feet then progressively going up until reaching their eyes and maintaining and intense eye contact (when THEY are doing the talk and you're simply listening)

Those paradoxical signals send your interlocutor mixed signals that trigger mixed emotions.

Starting with a seemingly negative and disinterested sign and ending up with intense and signaling interest creates a confusion thanks to which the only thing they will want is to maintain eye contact and try to avoid you looking elsewhere again.

By doing so, you position yourself in a position of power in which être contact with you becomes something they crave and don't want to lose.

Message here is:

Dont take my interest for granted.

Leaning back with open arms and open legs:

The fact of leaning back signals a lack of interest while having your arms and legs open signals openness to discussion.

Again, the mixed signals here will make your interlocutor come to you simply because you're hard to reach.

It also signals comfort and a lack of vulnerability which translates in high confidence.

This will also defuse their attempts to lure you or get the better of you.

Doing this will automatically force them to lean in and cross their arms to signal that they're inoffensive.

Turn your back and do something else while still maintaining the conversation:

While some will tell you that this signals a lack of respect and might trigger negative feelings, the fact that you will be answering them while being away from the conversation space will tune down the feelings of disrespect and install a feeling of not being enough in your interlocutor.

Subconsciously, they will try to get you back (physically) into the conversation or completely shut up to let you speak.

It signals, just like the above points, that they're not entitled to your attention which will make them fight harder for it.

Now why do these things?

The answer is quite simple.

By confusing the person in front you take a position of dominance

Not only that, but it also confuses the thoughts of the person in front and can sometimes lead them to saying more than what they're supposed to say.

Sending mixed signals forces your interlocutor to let their guard down and makes them more vulnerable.

Program Yourself Through Body Language

What if you could manipulate yourself?

Wouldn’t it be interesting to be able to induce emotions to yourself?

What if you could fool your own subconscious?

Because it’s possible.

Using basic body language, you can influence your own mood and feelings.

If you’ve heard of power posing you realize the power of body language to influence your overall self-esteem.

Such things can be applied to other emotions.

You can calm yourself through sitting in comfortable situations instead of letting your muscles get tense.

You can trigger your own grit by holding your fist tight.

I guess you see where I am going with this.

The trick is to learn your own body language reactions to positive emotions and then use those same reactions to regulate your mood when you’re in an undesired emotional state.

It can go as far as forcing yourself to smile when you feel low.

Use a mirror if possible.

Visualize yourself in a better mood.

When I say I don’t believe in treating depression with medication, it’s because I know very well that each one of us holds the power to be whatever they want to be.

Use these simple trick to reprogram yourself.

It’s those seemingly small actions that define how you feel.

Leverage them to your advantage.
