How to read people like paper.

Ever thought of knowing what is going on in someone’s mind, maybe during a conversation? For me, Yes! Research has shown that about 55% of information are communicated non-verbally amongst people.

In this articles, I intend to share with you, some tips to understand people actions and what they are communicating inwardly, so as to have an upper hand, probably in a discussion.

Chewing on objects – if you see someone chew on their pencil, glasses, such a person might have his or her mind clouded or cumbersome with something, maybe a task or duty. The chew on object with them to comfort themselves like when a child suck his or her mother’s breast.

True smile – it is not enough to smile or grin at someone, you can know a true smile when you see the side of the eyes move as well. A false smile comes a grin with no effect around the eyes.
