How to Command Respect through Body Language:PART 5

Walking into the limelight…

Carrying yourself in a confident manner is key to commanding respect. Give the impression that you're walking with a purpose so that you'll be admired by others.

What to do:

1. Walk, don’t run. Take even strides.

2. Look ahead or in front of you, not at the floor when you walk.

What not to do:

1. Don’t walk with a swagger; it indicates that you’re cocky and have an attitude.

2. Be careful not to shove people aside as you move across a crowded place: no one respects a rude person.

3. Similarly, avoid stepping on others' toes.
