Transcript

Have you ever notice that some people can just walk into a room and they get attention? People start looking up, inquisitive. There's a little body language trick that you might like to know because this is probably what that person is using and it's really clever. You've got to imagine a thread coming out the top of your head. It's running all the way down the center line of your body. And what you do as you walk into the room, you pull up this thread. You feel yourself, you're walking in, you feel yourself as if you're walking on a wire. You don't physically do that, and you look like a bit of a twit. And people will stare at you. But no, imagine it. Just imagine it and you will feel at that moment a wave of confidence as well as you walk into the room. That's what gets people's attention.
