Variations of Appearance - Visual Clues



We learn by observation, visual clues provide meaning to the events and images. Visual Clues are crucial elements in the development of social languages and social interaction.
Visual information absorbed by us help is in understanding the spoken words by six fold.

Visual cues are sensory cues received by the eye in the form of light and processed by the visual system by visual perception. Since the visual system is dominant in many species, especially humans, visual cues are a large source of information in how the world is perceived

We derive visual information from a person's face and lip moments and it helps us interpret what we hear. Lip reading helps us to understand how the brain integrates two different kinds of stimuli to come to a conclusion. There are simpler and more powerful visual clues that can easily be noted. 

Here are powerful visual clues to look for:
• Good Manners - They go hand in hand with a good education
• Good Grooming - A disheveled appearance suggests sloppy work
• Dressed to Impress - As opposed to dressing for personal comfort, which can imply arrogance
• Confident Handshake - A sign of self-assurance
• Confident Demeanor - Suggests leadership qualities
• Good Eye Contact - Suggests honesty and confidence
• Communicates clearly and distinctly - A person who mumbles lacks confidence in what he or she is saying

Body language does not lie. A person with hunched shoulders, a weak handshake and poor eye contact may have astounding credentials, but it isn't likely he or she will become a good manager. A manager must inspire his team, and a weak persona makes that difficult.

The way you look and dress announces powerful things about you. It suggests the outcome we can expect. Casual attire suggests a casual attitude. Professional attire announces that you are proud of who you are and what you do.
