Your body language may shape who you are | Amy Cuddy


Translator: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Morton Bast So I want to start by offering you a free no-tech life hack, and all it requires of you is this: that you change your posture for two minutes. But before I give it away, I want to ask you to right now do a little audit of your body and what you’re doing with your body. So how many of you are sort of making yourselves smaller? Maybe you’re hunching, crossing your legs, maybe wrapping your ankles. Sometimes we hold onto our arms like this. Sometimes we spread out. (Laughter) I see you. So I want you to pay attention to what you’re doing right now. We’re going to come back to that in a few minutes, and I’m hoping that if you learn to tweak this a little bit, it could significantly change the way your life unfolds.
So, we’re really fascinated with body language, and we’re particularly interested in other people’s body language. You know, we’re interested in, like, you know — (Laughter) — an awkward interaction, or a smile, or a contemptuous glance, or maybe a very awkward wink, or maybe even something like a handshake. Narrator: Here they are arriving at Number 10. This lucky policeman gets to shake hands with the President of the United States. Here comes the Prime Minister — No. (Laughter) (Applause) (Laughter) (Applause) Amy Cuddy: So a handshake, or the lack of a handshake, can have us talking for weeks and weeks and weeks. Even the BBC and The New York Times. So obviously when we think about nonverbal behavior, or body language — but we call it nonverbals as social scientists — it’s language, so we think about communication.

Rin's Combat School - Daruk's Perfect Parry

Image
Welcome to Rin’s Combat School, a series where we’ll be going over one technique at a time and showing its uses and combat. Daruk’s Perfect Parry uses Daruk’s Protection in a unique way, and has the same properties as if used normally but if done correctly does not use any resources and can be used infinitely this is activated by simply tapping ZL as fast as possible. If held for even a couple frames to long it’ll become a normal Daruk’s Protection and use up a resource this can only be mastered with lots of practice as this technique has a tighter window than even a regular parry and it’s difficult to use 100% of the time against enemy attacks. This can be used in a variety of ways including parrying enemy attacks, preventing fall damage, and bomb parrying. For best effect I recommend use this as a bomb parry technique as it’s easier to control your own detonation timing rather than the enemy attack. And instead of a convoluted name such as “Daruk’s Perfect Bomb Parry” it can b...
