LAW 3: SILENCE YOUR INNER CRITIC
What is possible thinking?
You have about 60,000 thoughts per day, and between 70-90 percent of those thoughts are negative. This is why most people look unhappy. They are having a conversation with their Inner Critic. This villain of your mind makes your life unnecessary hard. How about if you made your Inner Critic into your best friend? The one who protects you, instead of attacking you? Let me show you how.

LAW 8: BE THE WIZARD
What is the power of the First Impression?
When you show yourself in the world and meet other people, you naturally stir up emotions. This is to be expected. Do not fool yourself into thinking that others do not judge you! It is an ancient survival mechanism, rooted in the deepest parts of your brain. You cannot spend your life second-guessing others' motives or nature. We trust our instincts immediately, so the impressions we make are lasting ones.
Have you ever wondered how some people have the instant ability to make you feel better about yourself from the first contact? The connection such people make with you is unspoken, yet you feel accepted, trusted, maybe even delighted. They make you feel optimistic and strong. Why? These people have mastered the Laws of the First Impression.
LAW 17: CONNECT FIRST
How to make a meaningful connection?
One of the biggest mistakes people make when they try to create First Impressions is forgetting the other person. Focusing on what you are trying to sell, be it a product, idea or yourself, will not make a sale. What you must do is to focus on the other person from the start, creating a deep connection that develops into a relationship. This authentic relationship will then open up the possibilities you were seeking. In your mind, start with the end. Start with a deep, meaningful relationship.
"First Impressions are about the connection you create with the other person. The connection should be instant, strong and positive."
LAW 35: ENCHANT
How to make a powerful First Impression?
First Impressions are deep and powerful, and you can control them. It is easy to take over other people's decision-making process or to motivate an action.
Have you ever found yourself asking yourself, "What was I thinking?" The answer is at the end of this chapter.
"Reactions to First Impressions are predictable, and you can shape them to your use."
