Hey, glad you enjoyed the video. It was more just making reference to as tension in the hands increase it reduces blood flow creating a visible identifier of tension.

@@AnthonyLaye yeah it's great work for sure. Thanx for your response. The promptness is truly a bonus. So the point I was trying to make as much in tongue-in-cheek, was that in my opinion, I mean you have a diverse audience, so to be inclusive, maybe it would be helpful to avoid examples that apply to "1 race and not another". For example, blacks don't visibly blush so if you give that example, then I feel like you discount me and so how do I continue feeling you are also talking to me. Maybe I overthink things. But the point is important to me. Am sure you could have explained it differently. Cheers.

Thank you, great to have you here.

@@paper3691 thank you very much, I appreciate your support 🙏

Thank you, there are some great videos in the pipeline 😀

Thanks for commenting. I will do a future video about this topic, however in the meantime as a general rule keep hands relaxed and in view, make eye contact approx 60 - 70% of the time.

Thanks for watching 🙏

Very insightful stuff💯✅

@@paper3691 Thank you 🙏

Thank you 🙏

Thank you, I am glad you are enjoying the improvements to the videos 🙏

100% it's like the quote 'well thats enough about me, now you tell me what you think about me' (I can't remember who said it). Thanks for commenting 🙏

Thank you for stopping by and watching 👍

I appreciate your openness, awareness is one of the first steps to creating change and managing behaviours.

100% These are great other red flags to look out for. Thank you for sharing.

tru

I'm intrigued 😁

Great comment @dukeleach, some great tips as other things to look out for and 110% to your point 'Do Not Do It' 👏

They use your heart and religion against you as a weapon. Funny story I moved out all my clothes and my belongings. He never looked in the closet. He only noticed 2 books missing. I did this over a month of time. So, when I did lailundry at the laundry mat I took out my clothes, and brought his back inside. Do not be afraid to leave they will never notice your clothes or shoes missing.

@@dukeleach great story, glad you made the choice to leave... and with very clean clothes 😆

Do not be afraid to leave. Once you go no contact. They will leave you alone.

Thank you and glad you are enjoying the new content style😁

I am sure it did feel awkward, not a nice experience for you.... at least they are now an 'Ex'. Thanks for sharing 🙏

Thank you 🙏

Thank you, glad you enjoyed this one.

(I ‘liked’ the video) 💯✅

Absolutely, you are not alone. A lot of people feel the same. Few things you can do: 1) Preparation will help you feel more confident, so know what you want to say, I personally don't script (having to remember a script makes me feel pressured), I have a couple of methods to help me remember what I want to say, one of those is a few bulleted points in large print. If you are struggling in conversations where its not a speech, memorise 3 - 5 conversation questions that you can fall back on. 2) Before a speech or conversation be aware of your body language, use confident, open body language (Amy Cuddy did a great talk TED talk on this, its easy to find if you search her name) to this day I do this before EVERY presentation. 3) During the presentation SLOW DOWN if you only did one tip from this list, this is the one I would want you to remember. I will create a KZbin video on your question in the coming weeks as it was a GREAT question and feel it needs to be unpacked more than I can write in the comments.

Thank you for being a subscriber and more importantly thank you for your feedback, I completely understand your comment about the content, funnily enough was putting together a content plan for the coming months as I want to go back to some slightly longer videos. Watch this space 😁

I will take your advice and continue to watch this space. I know you won’t let me down. I will continue to ‘like’ all of your videos. (Until the end of winter, at least…) 👍
