初対面の４分間
What makes people become friends or not?
Many people point out the first impression is important.
They say people depend on the impression when they get the first meeting.
That’s why we have to be careful about what we wear, how we look and how we talk.
According to Dr. Zunin, the first interaction between strangers is significant.
Especially, the first four minutes.
When we were introduced to each other, we spend a few minutes talking.
Dr. Zunin observed a lot of people talking each other for the first time.
His observation tells that after the first four minutes, people decide whether they will stay with the person or not.
If they are interested in the person whom they are talking with, they will continue talking.
If they are not, they just greet and leave.
Then what should we do during the four minutes?
Zunin’s theory says, you have to be confident, happy, and friendly.
But, some of you may think, if these are not my personality, then am I telling a lie to him?
No, says Dr. Zunin, you are not born self-confident or shy,
The point is you can choose which way you live.
Pretend as if you are self-confident, then, you can live that way.
Don’t you think it is worth trying?
