Page 86 - How To Analyze People: 13 Laws About the Manipulation of the Human Mind, 7 Strategies to Quickly Figure Out Body Language, Dive into Dark Psychology and Persuasion for Making People Do What You Want

The emotional energy that is emitted often gets little attention, but it is

actually among the indicators that you could use to get a read on what

someone’s personality might be. If you’ve ever been around someone who

just seems to have a dark cloud hanging over them no matter where they go

or what they do, that could be the clue you need that lets you know this

person is someone who’s got a strong negative perception, or that they
could be of a manipulative nature.

Other Body Language Indicators to Look Out For

There’s a myriad of ways to gauge body language that extends beyond the

main 7 strategies that were mentioned above. People are complex creatures
with interesting personalities, and like a good book, it gets more interesting

with every turn of the page, especially when more clues are unraveled along

the way the deeper you look.

Other body language indicators to look out for when you’re trying to
analyze someone are:

The Handshake - Nothing like a good, strong, firm handshake
to let you know when someone is feeling comfortable and
confident. But what if the handshake was the opposite though?
Limp, reluctant, and almost like they can’t wait to release your

hand as soon as they touch it? While it doesn’t necessarily have
to mean anything specific, a less than firm handshake could
simply indicate that the person is lacking self-confidence, feeling
uncomfortable, is non-committal, timid or is an introvert by

nature. Cold and clammy hands, on the other hand, could signal
that the person is feeling anxious and nervous, as we all tend to
sweat a little bit when we’ve got those butterflies in our stomach.
