How To Analyze People
Become A Master In Reading Anyone Instantly
If there’s a single most important skill you can pick up in today’s globally connected and technically savvy world, it’s the ability to analyze people. How do you determine a good fit for your organization while interviewing potential hires? How do you approach strangers? How about a crush or potential date? How do you build a stunning rapport with clients by diving into their head?
Learning to read other people gives you a definite edge in terms of predicting behavior, modeling your actions to build a favorable rapport with people, forging more fulfilling personal relationships and excelling at building professional relationships. No, I am not suggesting you switch careers to be an FBI agent. However, it doesn’t hurt to possess their sharp people analyzing acumen, does it?
Some people unwittingly emanate signals that make them stand out as soft targets; others give out way too many aggressive signals for their own good. Being aware of your verbal and non-verbal communication patterns keep in greater control of conveying the intended things to people, and avoid any potential misunderstandings or conflicts.
The ability to analyze people impacts your relationship with them. When you develop a greater understanding of how someone feels or tailor your message / communication pattern to make sure it is received as intended. Learning about reading and analyzing people helps you understand what clues you should be watching out for a while communicating with people. What are the things you should be carefully listening to? What are the typical signs that indicate how someone thinks or feels? How can you spot when someone is lying? How can you sense deception and dishonesty?
Glossies and periodicals such as Cosmo, GQ, and Psychology Today have a huge number of pages devoted to pop quizzes and pop psychology features such as “Ten Ways to Tell If a Man is Really into You” or “Tell Tale Signs Your Kids Are Lying to You: Watch Out for Their Feet Position to Know the Truth.” Pop psychology has partially ruined the analyzing people game, by converting it into a non-serious, entertaining pursuit, which would be good if it wasn’t so inaccurate.
In a more practical sense, this isn’t how it works. You can’t tell if a man is into you or not based on the shape of his eyebrows when he looks at you. Similarly, lying children can’t be called out by looking at the direction of their feet. This makes for spicy, fun reading no doubt, but its applications are skewed. These publications and several other viral content sites are responsible for people leaping to unfortunate and unwarranted conclusions.
There are far more effective ways to tell how a person is thinking or feeling than eyebrows, the direction of one’s feet and the color of one’s eye.
You really don’t have to be a top-line interrogator to understand what is happening in someone’s mind. There are signals, and if you’re perceptive and trained to read these signals, you’ll do well. People are almost always giving away important clues related to their thoughts, feelings, attitude, and actions. You simply need to know what to watch out for.
