Do you ever think about the impression you make on people?

[Bárbara1402]

It has been said that it takes between 3 and 7 seconds until someone gets a first impression from you. Do you ever think about how your impression on people was?
People not always are honest about what they think about you. For me it crazy to think that you can be a hero in someone’s and a villain in others. And that’s not only connected on how you act towards them but how they perceive you as well. For instance there are some people that give a confident and strong vibe but inside they are so damage that they break all the time, they are just good at faking it.
I have met some people that I was amazed by their strength and eventually I saw them breaking and thought to myself that I have never realized how that was just an act. But I do believe that their strength (before I knew that they were damage) encouraged me to act the same way and show that I’m confident.

I try my best not to be guided by impressions because...

sure... maybe you meet someone who seems to be a very strong person just to see them break apart under pressure, or after a fail... and then maybe you just walk away?

and what do you miss... the other kind of strength that requires to recover, to stand up and get back on track to perhaps, do even better than you did ever before

so, no... I don't really care that much about impressions, because they are just that, impressions or also perspectives that come from a very "narrow scope" many times

for myself or others... I like to go beyond impressions

I am not a social person so I don't think that I am good at making a first impression.

[msc545]

For obvious reasons, I think about this all the time.

[FunkyMonkee]

Only when I've fallen on top of them.

only when they are significant to me.

[Jeff51]

[BCRanger10]

All the time.
