Mind Scripts

As we saw in the last post, making the first impression right is very important. But often we are faced with precarious situations where it’s not easy. It could be that we are going for the interview for the dream job in the dream company so we are nervous and being nervous can lead to a very bad first impression. How do we overcome this?
In his book ‘The Full Facts Book of Cold Reading’, Ian Rowland gives a very simple solution: ‘Mind Scripts’.
So what are ‘Mind Scripts’? It’s nothing but repeating a small positive statement about the upcoming encounter. So in this scenario it could be something like this: ‘I am prepared, I’ll do good and they will like me.’ Keep repeating this in your mind till the initial conversation starts. This makes a good impact on out mindset and body language.
