Have you ever said "look me in the eyes and say that"? We all have. Why do we do this? We do it because we want to trust people who look (we) in the eyes. In fact, it is this tool that allows people of low honesty (try) to make others believe that they're honest and sincere.
There are a lot of (meaning) communicated with eye contact. It can signal(发出 信号) the start of building a trusting relationship or it can signal the start of a fight.
Eye contact is also important tool in the messages that we receive. We may think that listening is a task that's left to our ears, in face-to-face communication, eye contact communicates listening more than anything else. What is it about eye contact that is so (power) in communication? Why is the face the first place we look at when we connect with another?
Why don't we translate this appreciation for the power of eye contact action? It isn't easy. We avoid eye contact with people we don't like or if we're trying to hide the truth from someone. Masking (伪装) our feelings is more (easy) done when we avoid eye contact.
Eye contact is important because people are social creatures. may be surprising for us to discover that we aren't making eye contact nearly as much as we thought we (be). Looking people in the eye can help us relate, win over and connect with others.
