Assertiveness and Self Confidence – Module 7: Looking the Part – Case Study

A study. Matthew used to envy his best friend, Carter. He always managed to succeed with whatever he touched. Matthew did have a good idea on Carter’s secrets, but was challenged in practicing them. Matthew realized that Carter has a great grasp on personal appearance, controlling body language, and confidence. His best friend learned that appearance was very important, as the first impression that anyone makes is based on it. Together with this, Matthew also observed how his friend seemed to have a perfect body language that he controlled all the time. With these aspects in mind, Matthew started to experiment to see if he could achieve anything by improving his appearance. With a new haircut and new suit, he felt confident. This confidence improved overall his body language, and he quickly learned that the secret was hidden in plain sight all this time.
