There are many things in life that we do without even realising. We might be unaware of these things, but the person next to us will not like them and end up forming a wrong impression about us. But guys not to worry about it. We’ll give you a list of these unintentional mistakes so that you can keep a check on yourself while doing any of this. Here you go…
Checking phones
We make this mistake very often and that too without realising how the person next to us would feel about it. He could interpret this behaviour as bad manners or even attitude. Though we were listening to him/her, but the distraction of attending to a message that beeped in your phone would not be taken well. It will show that you are not interested in the conversation. Eye contact is very important to make any communication effective.
Timely follow-ups to formal meetings
This is really important when it comes to your formal dealings. You should have a proper record of all the meetings and conversations. You should give proper and timely replies to all the calls and messages if you want to be called a gentleman/woman.
Rude behaviour with juniors
If you are very nice to your boss and to the people who are senior to you, it’s good. You have to be! But that doesn’t mean you can be rude with your juniors or someone younger to you! If you want them to do back biting, it’s your call.
Not letting anybody else speak
Putting your point of view is good, but we know that excess of everything is bad. So every time you try to do this, you’ll be dominating the conversation without listening to others. And that doesn’t leave a very good impression on people around you. So, control your emotions and avoid doing this all the time.
Looking people in the eye
Eye contact is important to show that you are confident but when you continue it for a long period of time, your confidence turns into a bad impression. It embarrasses the other person and makes the atmosphere uncomfortable for any future conversations.
Keep forgetting things
Sometimes you keep forgetting thingslike your meeting schedules, names of your co-workers and colleagues, your personal things like keys, phone or wallet. If you do these things at a new working place, among new people, they will construe you to be a careless person.
Inappropriate expressions and gestures
These things show your uncultured behaviour and leave a really bad impression. So simply avoid these in your official environment. Moreover, these things do no good to your health. They bring all the negative energy around.
