Chris Hemsworth Told Me You Are Amazing!
(It goes without saying that his smoldering, blue eyes, dashing good looks along with his masterful use of hand gestures and fabulous eye contact have nothing to do with why you want to listen to him).
You're welcome.
A question for you.
Have you ever noticed people live up to the expectations that someone gives them?
For example, your friend introduces you to someone new and says something like, “I want to introduce you to my friend Sally. She is an amazing (insert profession) and is a wonderful conversationalist to boot!” And then suddenly you find yourself in a conversation, and by golly, Sally IS a good conversationalist!
It turns out there is a name for this experience– it’s called the Pygmalion Effect.
In other words, by being introduced as a great conversationalist, the person rises to the occasion and IS a great conversationalist.
One of the most highly “cited and discussed” studies in psychology is one done by Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson. The researchers conducted a study that looked at how a teacher’s expectations influenced their students’ performance.
In the study, teachers were told that one-fifth of their children scored high on an IQ test and were labeled “gifted”. Of course, the children were randomly selected and not necessarily “gifted” at all, but as a result of the label they ended up increasing in IQ points.
In brief,
Which brings me back to Chris Hemsworth and what he has to say about you. The video is 51 seconds of what you need to hear. And with that in mind, here are your marching orders after listening to the video clip several times:
- Listen to what he has to say and believe it.
- Start surrounding yourself with people that build you up.
- Begin building other people up as well.
