This is going to get a lot of people around you nervous and concerned, unless you talk in a very hippie/hipster sort of way. But if your smooth on the first one, sound genuinely perplexed mixed with time-constrained on the second, and scream the last one whilst looking them dead in the eyes then you've hit maximum effect! or try: 1. Do you do what? 2. Are you from where? 3. You are how?

    Jay, yes, it is like shaking hands with someone and they look at someone else while they are shaking your hand. This happened to me once and I kicked the person in the shin, he looked at me right quick after that. Another one that gets me going is if someone asks you how you are and you say "not that well" and they distractedly say "that's great". Since that happened to me I always ask back if they are really interested in hearing the full story. That usually makes them stop and think as well.

    I'm surprised that people aren't familiar with this. When I was a child (late 1960s), my father related a story about how he was in town and decided to see if he could get other people to do something, just because he was. In front of a movie theater, just as people were leaving, he looked intently at a point in the sky. Soon, a whole crowd began looking. He said that after enough people were looking, he stopped and walked a short way, so he could watch and listen. Humorously enough, eventually someone asked "what are we looking at?" There were a number of responses, that included "an airplane," and someone even mentioned that a man was staring into the sky and they looked, hoping to see what had caught his attention. As a result, I have repeated this experiment and it's always a lot of fun!

Always brought a smile to us but most of the time when someone would ask what we were all looking at, we'd say 'nothing, just stopping to enjoy the sky'. They would smile and walk away.

My takeaways: - our emotions are contagious, so others will pick up on how we feel - facial expressions + body language can be THE TRIGGER for your emotional reality, instead of just vice versa! - frame dialogue/questions in terms of positive words instead of negative or empty ones. - all this makes me realize, I need to do power poses + affirmations more!

    My sister started waiting tables at a restaurant that drew people from three and four hours away. People with money. She started comparing her tips with others and saw she was not getting near the tips. My dad managed this restaurant and tourist/history demonstration center. He was in the restaurant only an hour or so each day. After a week my sister complained. My dad started observing her and after a couple hours he pulled her aside and said, SMILE WHEN YOU ARE AT THE TABLE... she didn't agree that week. He talked to her on the weekend and convinced her to truly smile and test it for a week. She almost tripled her tips.

    Actually yes as an unarmed security officer in Culver city DMV in CA... well the mood at the place was less than positive, in the morning when people are lining up an hr before the DMV opens was the worst that is when i started doing what she was talking about. I was rationalizing to them saying that this is the best time to be here and smiling. I wasnt fake smiling it was real and went around talking to people with that smile the rest of the 8 hrs. The next day i came back with a big smile on my face for another 8. The next day when I was closing I actually had 3 of the DMV associates come up to me after closing and thanked me. And I said for what, they said ever since I started people were treating them better. This was 10 years ago but what she says is 100% accurate.

    Thank you so much for the insight! I never realized some of these tactics. Some of them I've employed throughout my years working customer service, without realizing. Such as asking people if they have any fun or exciting plans. Or asking them to tell me about something they've been really passionate about. I will definitely employ more of these strategies and try to be contagious to my coworkers.

    16:54 Is a huge moment in this talk; a belief I decoded on my own, simply reframing your mindset can shift, like a panoramic camera, the scope of possibility for one who is faced with a difficult decision. Excitement with comfortable acceptance of un-intended failure and full openness to learn.

    Right after I listened to your talk a moment ago, I received a phone call from someone I had some tensions with earlier today. So, I did exactly what you recommended. I made my voice gently cheerful. I told him I liked his shirt, which I truly meant, and continued with some additional sincere small talk. The tensions disappeared and we left the conversations smiling. I’m certain my tone of voice at the onset of the conversation set the tone for the positive. Fun to have the experience right after your talk. Thanks Vanessa!
