Hi, I'm Donna Barnes. I'm a life and relationship coach and the owner of NY Dating Coach in New York City.
In this clip 1 we will talk about making a good first impression and you only get one chance to do that, right? So a real great way to make a first impression is to make eye contact and really take interest in the person that you are meeting. First off remember their name. If when you first meet somebody, you use their name in a sentence when you talk to them then you let them know that you heard their name, that you listened.
And allow them to be in the spotlight 2, you know, share about yourself and reveal some things but don't monopolize 3 the conversation, it's not all about you. It's, even if you're the most interesting person in the world, people want to talk about themselves too. So, be a great listener, ask questions and really want to get to know the other person. And, you know, people like to talk about themselves. So if you give them the opportunity to do that, then they're gonna like you.
So, make sure that you dress nice and have good posture 4. And don't be negative, don't complain about things, no one wants to hear your problems. It's not, you know, anything for a first meeting. Just be positive, be yourself, don't be phony and be a good listener.
This is Donna Barnes from New York City.
