Powerful People do This...

really powerful people make eye contact

at the end of their point. We know as

humans that I cannot do complex math

problems while making eye contact. Yeah,

we can't do it. And so actually it makes

you look very thoughtful and pensive for

the 40% you're not looking at me when

you're gathering that actually leaders

do that because they're showing I'm

authentically coming up with the answer.

It would be very weird if you were

delivering 100% with 100% eye contact

because I would feel like it was

scripted. Yeah, that's one of the

reasons why I think um presenters make

this problem and I whenever I watch like

Shark Tank or Dragon's Den, a big

mistake they make is they're so

rehearsed they don't break eye contact

and it gives you sort of a robotic

feeling. So if you're practicing a

presentation, you actually want to have

a little bit of like adlib in there. You

want to be processing around because it

shows you're authentically grabbing the

information and that shows competence.
