Respect personal space.
from The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism by Olivia Fox Cabane
Once someone crosses into our personal space, we become more aggressive and try to defend it at all costs.
How to Apply This
-
Respect people’s personal space.
Once you cross into their space, they may connect negative feelings with you. -
When you sit down with others, try to sit next to them, or at a 90-degree angle.
Avoid sitting in front of them. This more direct position makes the conversation less comfortable.
