The Ultimate Body Language Book

such as postures and signals or in the case of poker “tells”, then we can’t graduate into a full reader of
body language.
When we describe our intuition to others, we also need the proper vocabulary to convey our feelings to
them. But this isn’t the only time we need to use the proper language of nonverbal reading, in fact, we
need to train the little voice inside our head to also talk us through as we read others. When I watch
someone, I can say unequivocally, that I think they are a timid, or confident or lack confidence and use
specific examples. By the end of this book and with a little bit of practice, you will be able to do the
same. As you learn, don’t be afraid to review the information in your head. Every mind is built
differently, and I have a gift (when I’m actively listening) to remember verbal dialogue that has
transpired years previous whilst recalling specific sentences used, the context and the location.
Unfortunately for others, and sometimes fortunately for me, this has made me a very powerful debater.
I can remain one hundred percent consistent in my position and use inconsistencies across the short or
long term, to point out errors in reasoning of others. I can also cite specific instances that lead me to
modified my position on things which can later help should I change my defense. Your mind might
have more visual strengths, or analytical skills, or something else to help you dissect the cues of others.
The point here is to use your strength in reading people rather then to focus on your weaknesses.
Regardless however, do be aware of your flaws as it will make you a stronger reader overall.
