HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR SOCIAL SKILLS - DON'T BE AN OVERACTOR

It feels good to be liked, to be needed, to be wanted. This is true in both personal and business situations.

As a result, there is a temptation to try too hard to get approval. This sounds like a good strategy, right?

No no no.

Don't be an overactor
​

​There is something about trying hard that gets us in a mode of overacting. This means that we get a little extra cheery, a little extra accommodating, and sometimes even  a higher pitched, sing songy voice. Yuck. The result in a completely inauthentic, kiss up type of vibe. No thank you.

This is something that I see more often in men, but it applies to everyone. 

So, don't be an overactor. Focus on being your authentic self and try to relax in the comfort that you are going to be you and not apologize for it. Don't let yourself get into exaggerated movements, talk, or actions. Keep it classy, but keep it real.
