Chin up, take in the whole room, try and project to the back,
ever been to a presentation where you felt the person was only really engaging with the front row?
If that, and if you were any where passed halfway you weren't going to get a look in, that can happen, erm, you know,
try and project yourself, your persona if you like, to the whole room, right to the back if you can do it,
try and sort of make everyone in the room feel your presence if you like,
rather than just hearing you squeak from the front
move a little more slowly, maybe your movements could be a bit more controlled,
you know, don't sort of snap your neck when someone speaks
It's a bit, you know, try and look a little, not everybody, well, you don't do that do you?

It's like putting a barrier between me and you, If I was holding, say it's a something, anything,
that I could hide behind really, the idea is that if you can stay as open as possible,
sorry he did have to leave, He did say before,
If I had a negative attitude or negative feelings about what I was doing,
or what I was saying to you, It would come out, even if I was saying one thing with my mouth,
my body would be, you'd read it differently, you'd get a different message
and what I often say to people is have you ever been talking with someone and you just thought,
there's something not right about this person, I can't put my finger on it, there's just something,
and it's probably because their body language might well be saying something different to what they're actually telling you with their mouth
big fish little fish cardboard box, big fish little fish cardboard box,
I said I am going to get this in somehow and they'll never even notice,
there's something not right about this person, I can't put my finger on it, there's just something
