    ALSO, it's important to emphasize keeping ~80/20 eye contact WHILE YOU ARE SPEAKING and not just while you're listening to someone. Personally, this is what I need to work on. It sometimes comes from an insecurity that others don't care about what I have to say.

    Yes! Eye contact improvement has changed my life. Took me a yr to get better and improve and for most of my life, I didnt even notice I was avoiding eye contact for most of my conversations. Practice practice practice, you will get better at it watch. You will notice things in people you never noticed before. E.g. other people using eye contact to try to intimidate you.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think 'Other Rules to Follow' #3 is backwards. Maintaining eye contact is more important when listening because it demonstrates that you're paying attention, and diverting eye contact becomes more necessary when you're talking because it helps you think and recall facts.

    Thank you for the great video!! but playing the staring contest when you're a young woman is risky and brings unwanted attention :(

    Tried to hold eye contact with some dude, he looked at me with a mean look; so I had to look away =/

    Great advice as always! I wanna add something: focusing on just one eye is the way to go - however if you want to speak to the right side of the brain (which is probably what you wanna be doing) you might want to look into the left eye. If holding strong eye contact is tough for you, just look right between the eyes, the other person will most likely still feel like you're looking them into the eyes. :)

    I love that you add in challenges for us to carry out, It really helps put it to action and get the ball rolling. Knowledge is worthless without action. So it's nice to see you are encouraging action while also providing us with the knowledge.

    Another tip is to look for the friendly eye of the two and focus on that one. All people have two different expressions in their eyes. One is more analytical and dominant, the other more kind. Try to focus on the latter one. First you feel you tend to get pulled to the dominant eye but with practice it will help a lot.
