Actually Geralts slow movements are something that he does on purpose. As mutant he is much, MUCH quicker than avarage human so he does this to hide his ability from enemies and to prevent people from exluding him in situations like contract taking or just gaining info. (it was explained in books)

[@ArvelDreth]

both explanations can be true, I think

[@epicepidemic7131]

I like how confident you are in your expertise on mutants vs. humans. Keep it up--one day someone will need your expertise!

[@DemianCorvus]

I just want to add the fun fact that Henry moves slow acting as Geralt because, as said by him and also as a reference to the books, Geralt is usually on high alert and doesn't want others to know how fast he can actually move thanks to mutation or alchemical stuff. Which actually makes sense for someone who usually has to fight and doesn't know if any normal person could eventually be an enemy.

[@vs2132]

[@10makesyoubasic33]

I was trying to figure out how to explain exactly what you said. I suffer with PTSD, but I don't like it to be immediately obvious in case someone decides to use it against me. What I do is attempt to not appear as a threat or target; while constantly watching every detail of other people as I can. Most people have a tell when they are plotting something against you, and your gut instinct is typically right. How you react to it may not be. Essentially it's "be a wolf in sheep's clothing" with the expectation of stopping another predator instead of chasing the prey.

[@SuccessWheels]

some NOTES here 1. SLOW, LANGUID MOVEMENTS: When you move slowly & comfortably you sub communicates to other people that you do not feel scared & pressured. That is perceived as confidence. Move at a pace that is self determined than environment determined. 2. BE COMFORTABLE TURNING BACK ON OTHERS: The person who ends the conversation & walks away usually the one with more power in a given situation. But don’t be like Geralt in this situation, for eg when someone enters a room you could turn & wave but better is to stand up head on & hand shake. 3. CONFIDENT PEOPLE CAN AFFORD TO HANDICAP THEMSELVES: You can do this by being more honest especially where you think it might set you back socially for eg if you have a nerdy hobby that you think other people might judge, often better off speaking about it with enthusiasm rather than downplaying it. 4. EXTREME NON-REACTIVE: When we notice that people who are resilient & their calmness are not easily feared we view them as more confident & capable. Whatever is coming at them that they can handle. firmly build up an internal calm so you are not always in constant reaction to the world. As always my crazy passion is to share summaries like started doing it on my channel with PDF summaries ✌ People say to me more often that I am slow in reacting to anything. Does that mean I am like Geralt? 😜

[@hrvad]

Flexibility is important, because you have to adapt to the situation you're in. As such you should never be dominant (or submissive) all of the time. For example, if you're attending a meeting there's no point in posturing and dominating the room when someone else in on as speaker and you're supposed to listen. However, when it's your turn to present as per the agenda, by all means step into your dominance. Any sane person will shift in and out of dominance and submission during the day as each moment requires. When it comes to seduction the statistically sound strategy to put forth as a fairly normal man is to step into dominance, because *most* women like a confident, dominant man. Turning your back on someone like Geralt does is more than confidence, which is why I call it dominance. Sometimes a less than optimal approach with your boss :)

Great video! My *summary* of the 4 ways Geralt of Rivia demonstrates confidence: 1. Geralt has slow, languid movements. ○ Deep confidence is about being able to move at a pace that is self-determined rather than environmentally determined ○ Animal kingdom analogy ○ Predator movements = slow and languid; nothing to be afraid of; comfortably energized □ If you get too lethargic, energize yourself with a stretch or quick breaths ○ Prey movements = herky-jerky; in constant anticipation of danger □ If this happens, take a deep breath and open your body language to slow down 2. Geralt is very comfortable turning his back on others. a. Animal kingdom: sign that something is unthreatening / unimportant i. Only predators can afford that b. Caution: That will make the other person feel unimportant (to you)! 3. Confident people can afford to handicap themselves. ("Handicap principle") a. Animal example: male peacock's feathers -> no other purpose than look sexy b. Example: Say something that might hurt your reputation -> ppl assume you must be strong enough not to need people to like you -> you come across as confident & more likeable c. How to implement that in everday life? Be less socially calculating and instead more honest in your self-expression, e. g. about your geeky hobbies. 4. Geralt is extremely non-reactive a. The ability to have a sturdy/resilient emotional center = key creator/indicator of confidence b. Low reactivity signifies you can handle whatever (stressor, problem etc.) life throws at you c. Animal kingdom: strong emotional mastery can trump physical strength in dominance battles d. It's important to recognize your specific emotional triggers; make a list proactively e. However, that doesn't mean swallowing your emotions; have the courage to be vulnerabe • What you want is unshakable deep confidence -> the rest (body language etc.) will follow naturally

The deep breathing whenever anxiety starts to rev up really is a game changer, whenever I’m in a situation that trigger it, I always take a deep breath, and make an effort to do the opposite of what my anxiety wants - I speak and move slowly and goal oriented, keep my language simple and to the point, I lower the pitch of my voice. I have no problem with people seeing that I’m affected by the situation and that my demeanor change, but slowing down usually resets things, and builds a foundation for an anxiety free interaction from that point on! I’ve also found simply asking myself “why?” can snap me out of negative thought spirals:)

Geralt is also a seasoned meditator. Those slow movements and non reactivity can definitely in part be attributed to that.

[@likemysnopp]

And if you are wounded you can just meditate and you will be healed. It is complete magic! Apply that instead of looking for a doctor or food.

[@gnarthdarkanen7464]

Meditation can certainly help... BUT there's a lot to be said about what you focus meditation upon, while ridding your mind of "useless monkey chatter". There's a point where embracing an emptiness has to be replaced with refined focus and rumination, or you short-change yourself for the benefits you could experience. There's also more benefits from a practiced meditation, rather than simply quiet meditation. Practices like Yoga, or Tai Chi will enhance your balance and coordination while you meditate, making the slowed deliberate motions more natural to your body and easier to carry on naturally, too. It is a kind of pity, that a lot of people aren't even aware that Tai Chi and Yoga were meant as a form of meditation practice... not just a series of stretches and "old people's martial arts" exercise... BUT such is life. AND no, you don't necessarily have to work through the prescribed sets according to one or another school... Simply adopting the philosophy and finding your own way can be a benefit. Obviously, if it's available to you, getting some direction (from a qualified teacher) has it's own benefits. I wouldn't discourage it. At the same time, "you gotta start somewhere". ;o)

Rewatching the Witcher now i all noticed these traits too, but i would also add that Geralt is able to see trough the lies and deduce the true intentions of the people he meets that want something from him and calls them out which in turn leads to those people revealing what really happened and being honest. This is probably from experiences of being betrayed and learning from it or just basic knowlegde of human nature.

Geralt actually has a lore reason to move in small very pronounced movements. When a Witcher takes potions, his speed may even double to his normal dancing swordplay. Therefor, he's trying to make it normal that people can see him move slowly. Obviously Geralt's faster then this, but it is very much something he does.

He also tends to not answer questions very quickly, he takes his time to make sure he says what he wants to say.

[@2nd_Directorate]

The point is, you need to be able to be effective at whatever you strive for, even if you handicap yourself. As long as this is achieved it, people will take it as confidence. People who over handicap themselves usually aren´t effective. The point is to reach your goal, as long as you manage that, people don´t take it in a negative manner.

[@leolegendary3275]

It all depends on the situation and how you handicap yourself. It is one thing to tell a funny story and put yourself as the target of a joke - self irony. It is a totally different beer, to start describing all your red flags and laugh about it. I usually use self irony a lot. People tend to react positively to it (granted they are not a total lost cause and cannot tell whether I am joking or am being serious). I have met a person who simply started listing how big of failure and psycho he was, 10 minutes into the conversation. You might say he was over handicapping himself, but in reality he is simply not reading the situation properly and does himself a disservice. There is nothing wrong with handicapping yourself as much as you want, but as the video mentioned, you have to seem stronger despite your handicap. Listing your red flags does not do that for you. For example, if you say "I went to a therapist and we found out I am simply an alcoholic. Hahaha! What is a person to do when he has fun with a good company!? Cheers!" - shooting yourself in the foot. On the other hand if you say, "I used to drink a lot in the past. I have recently discovered, with the help of my therapist, that I was a low-key alcoholic. I am currently working on changing this. Only one beer for tonight, though - I am in a good company! Cheers!" - handicapping yourself, but you seem strong for trying to change your problem.

[@potmki6601]

Just be honest. If someone catches you on mistake, let them. If someone assumes that you've archived something you didn't, correct them. If someone (all of that can be woman) outdoes you in smth, don't get envy, angry or competitive. Congratulate them, I guess. Such things don't hurt your identity. Well, they shouldn't.
