    hold your hands facing up 0:40 for 1 hour... and steeple occasionally like Mr. Burns... you probably won't be able to drive home after

    How about instead of focusing on you'r arm/ legs / eyes , try to focus on what the hell are you doing there and why do you want that job and what you will bring to that job.

    I hold my hands together because when they're not actively doing something my "minor motor tic disorder" (what used to be called Tourette syndrome) will flare. Any suggestions?

    • @p1nturicchi0
      @p1nturicchi0 8 років тому

      +Christopher Johnson To avoid any jitters or, what you mention as "Tourette's", keep your hands in an interlocked position on the table....
      Something like this: previews.123rf.com/images/rtimages/rtimages0901/rtimages090100056/4181484-Hands-in-white-gloves-fingers-interlocked-isolated-on-a-black-background--Stock-Photo.jpg with a forward leaning posture
      This shows confidence and receptivity, and indicates that you are attentive and wish to be involved in the process, rather than being laidback or nervous....
      Hope this helps!!

    IMO steepling is popular but has no real meaning. The only meaning is that if you don't do this, then you haven't seen videos like this (so you didn't tried to shape yourself to something what others tell you). 2nd thing: What is considered as "overuse"? What are the message of energetic, lively gestures if not that the person is energetic and lively?
