The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett XX
[0] Did you know that the DariVosio now has its own channel exclusively on Samsung TV Plus?
[1] And I'm excited to say that we've partnered with Samsung TV to bring this to life, and the channel is available in the UK, the Netherlands, Germany and Austria.
[2] Samsung TV Plus is a free streaming service available to all owners of Samsung Smart TVs and Galaxy mobiles and tablets.
[3] And along with the Dyeravisio channel, you'll find hundreds of more channels with entertainment for everyone all for free on Samsung TV Plus.
[4] So if you own a Samsung TV, tune in now and watch the Dyer of a Cio channel.
[5] right now.
[6] Body language.
[7] Yeah.
[8] I want to talk about that.
[9] Does it, you know, you said earlier, it's one of the things we can't lie about.
[10] Is there anything that you still look for in today when you're trying to read someone, their body language?
[11] Are there certain cues, is their postures?
[12] Well, you know, you got, in reading nonverbal communication, it's a different form of intelligence.
[13] It's not algorithms.
[14] It's not formulaic.
[15] it's human it's emotional it's empathetic it's a reading without words it's attuning yourself to other people so i attune myself to people's emotions to the vibe that they give off in an overall sense a gestalt is one thing that i like to do so if i had to give it a word i would say anxious or i would have to say outgoing and extroverted or i would have to say impatient or whatever there's an energy that kind of defines them.
[16] It's a word and that word is not precise, but there is an overall feel that I get from a person.
[17] And then I'm always looking at specifics.
[18] It's not like I'm sitting there consciously in my head going through a checklist.
[19] I'm just feeling certain things, and I'm feeling that the eyes are kind of dead.
[20] They're not engaging with me. And you can't put that into words, but you know the feeling.
[21] So when someone's looking at you, but they're not really looking at you, you know what that feels like, don't you?
[22] And a lot of psychopathic people, a lot of narcissists do that.
[23] So part of their face pretends to be interested in you.
[24] They are looking at you in the eye, but they're not really looking at you.
[25] They're thinking of something else.
[26] They're seeing in you what they can get out of you.
[27] They're seeing you as an object, right?
[28] eyes are hard to lie they tell you something now actors very skilled actors can kind of create some of these impressions but one thing that they can't fake is the tone in their voice and actors will tell you that it's the hardest thing to actually consciously control so the voice of a person tells you a lot about their confidence levels, tells you a lot about, you know, how just about their general emotional tone, about their character, about who they are.
[29] It's very difficult to fake.
[30] And when it's hesitant, when it's like stammering, when it's not, you know, you can kind of sense something from people's voice and it's very hard to fake.
[31] And then the smile, the smile tells you a hundred different things if you know how to read it there's the authentic smile which i'm not going to fake right now but well i just it lights up the whole face you know like you really feel joy you can you don't get your eyes go up your cheeks go up everything kind of connects together right the fake smiles you know yeah we've all seen the fake stuff just when the mouth goes up from the The rest of the face doesn't pull.
[32] Stephen, I really like you.
[33] You're really wonderful.
[34] You know.
[35] Most of the time, most smiles are fake, but you can kind of, when you see the genuine smile and you go, that's what caused the genuine smile.
[36] You should become aware of that.
[37] And then body language tells you a lot.
[38] Like, is somebody, when they're talking to you and you're standing up at a party, is their body kind of facing another direction while they're talking to you?
[39] Are they kind of looking out there while they're talking to you?
[40] That means they're not really interested in you.
[41] They're not really engaged in you, right?
[42] Also, when you catch people by surprise and they don't have the time to put on a fake smile, I often tell people to do this.
[43] Like, there's somebody in your office, and you don't know whether they're a snake or they're actually genuinely your friend.
[44] You suspect go either way.
[45] you kind of approach them from an angle right and you surprise them and you come up to them they look at you and for a second you detect what we call a micro expression of disdain and then they put on the smile that micro expression which scientists psychologists have studied last for like less than a second much less than a second you have to be able to read it but it reveals whether they actually like you or they're totally false they can't fake it so if you come straight on though oh hi step and i love it great to see you they come to you oh they kind of pretend then they try and act and you you can get clues like that there's so many ways to read body language it's such a fascinating subject i could go on for hours about how important is it you know you're talking about colleagues and team members there and earlier you said that people are contagious how important do you think it is to the success of our lives, and I pause there because success means it's a personal thing, it's a professional thing, to surround ourselves with the right group of people and to be intentional about that.
[46] It's very important.
[47] I have a chapter in the 48 laws of power about infection, and I think it's an experience many of us have had where you're around somebody who seems at first glance to be very interesting and they become your friend maybe.
[48] They're very dramatic and they have all these stories to tell and they seem almost slightly larger than life and you engage with them and then you become friends and then slowly, slowly, slowly it becomes clear that they're a little bit nuts, right?
[49] They're always talking about how this person screwed them, how that person screwed them, how this boyfriend or girlfriend was so awful and so nasty.
[50] You're going to realize, is this true or is it maybe they're the problem?
[51] They are the problem.
[52] But now they're your friend and now you're emotionally attached to them.
[53] And now they have room to play all these kind of games on you.
[54] And all of their drama starts infecting you.
[55] And it's like, God damn, I want to get away from this person, but I can't.
[56] they've infected you with their negative energy and it gets under your skin and so you have to avoid people like that you have to read before you get involved with them that they are a drama queen or a drama king because there are just as many men out there who have this quality you have to see that they are that they play the victim of everybody else but actually they kind of bring it onto themselves some people are genuinely unfortunate bad things have happened to them and it's not their fault i'm never saying it's a misconception about that chapter that you should avoid everybody who's unfortunate there are people and a lot of people out there whose circumstances have put made them you know in their what's going on it's not their fault right but there are other people you have to recognize that the bad things that happen to them are things that they have brought on because they have this infecting power it comes from deep insecurity.
[57] You don't want them in your life.
[58] Being around insecure people will make you insecure.
[59] Being around confident people who kind of know what they're doing, who've got their act together, who are trying to make things and accomplish things, because there's so many people out there who talk and talk and talk but never do anything.
[60] Being around people who do things, who get things done, who've made a business, who've made this, that, or the other, their goal to be around because they'll infect you with their positive energy.
