10 Ways To Make a Good Impression

10 Ways To Make a Good Impression

Impressions are important. It is often said that “the first impression is the last impression.” If you want to impress someone you get only few minutes to do so. The first meeting and the first few minutes of that meeting does it all. So, how to make a good impression? Here are 10 rules which will help you to create the best impression possible.

1. Don’t try to impress: The best way to impress someone is not trying to impress them. People who try too hard to impress will only end up giving an impression that they are showing off. So be subtle.

2. Be on Time, Be Punctual: Punctuality is one of the most important elements that contribute towards the building up of a good impression. Being on time is absolutely essential each time every time. Being on time or at least two minutes before time for any event or meeting just shows your seriousness.

3. Speak less, Speak Sensible: This is another important aspect which everyone should keep in mind. Speaking sensible and speaking less always helps to build a good impression. So be precise on what you say and be sensible.

4. Be Humble: Humility is the quality of being modest, and never being arrogant, contemptuous, rude or even self-abasing. Always be humble towards others. Whatever the situation is however big you are or great things you did, never be arrogant and never be boastful of your talent. When people praise you for something good you did, be humble and acknowledge the gesture with humility.

5. Keep Smiling: A smile can win a heart, and it’s absolutely true in impressing people as well. Smiling is very powerful. A sweet smile can win hearts for you.

6. Pay attention: It is important for you to pay complete attention to the person who is in conversation. One of the best silent compliments you can ever make to someone is to pay attention to what they are saying. People want to know you care. Show them that you do.

7. Eye contact: Eye contact is another important aspect which can generate a good impression for you. Eye contact basically means keeping your eyes fixed on the person whom you are in conversation with. On the other hand you must be careful that your eye contact is not disturbing someone’s comfort level. There are many people who don’t feel comfortable of the fact that someone looks at their eyes constantly.

8. Talk Slowly: Speaking at an accelerated rate is not only confusing to whomever is listening, but it is a sign of being nervous and/or a sign that you want to get something past them. Master the art of talking in proper speed and you can impress everyone.

9. Be a Good Listener: Talking is an easier task but listening is difficult. Listening skills are highly important in impressing a person. A good listener can also understand better the assignments and what is expected from them and as a result they perform well. Listening skills will help you to build rapport with co-workers, bosses, and clients.

10. Be Polite: Politeness is what you expect from others and definitely what others expect from you. Being polite can fetch you recognition and good name. This is a tremendous impression builder as people will be impressed with you if you respond to whatever comes to you, politely. Along with the above mentioned points, practice politeness.
