Hey everyone, and welcome to Top Think.
Today, we're going to learn about eight mistakes that ruin first impressions.
Now, let's begin.
Number one, correcting mistakes.
A good or bad first impression can sometimes hinge on a single comment, instantly transforming a great conversation into a complete disaster.
Let's say you're at a party talking to a new group of people.
They start joking and laughing about a movie you really like, but you hear them get an actor's name wrong.
So since you know the actor's real name, you jump in and correct their mistake, only to realize you accidentally turned a fun, positive interaction into an awkward moment.
For some people, it's not easy to ignore even the most insignificant mistakes.
For example, if someone says, "funner, " instead of, "more fun, " it's tempting to correct their grammar, but even this tiny amendment can make you seem stiff and serious.
