What kind of asperger freaks do we have here who need lessons on when to smile?
Not nice
Just teasing. But it still ain't nice. I remember a few years ago, when I couldn't even smile to save my life. Shyness, social anxiety, call it what ya not. It's like your mouth is stuck shut with stitches, you just can't.
Boooooooy it's been a long Journey.
About the original topic
I agree with both the original poster and the naysayer replies. Here's why.
True, always having a super huge ear-to-ear grin everywhere isn't "ideal". But if there is one extreme that brings good results, than this is it.
Let me put it this way.
If you always had a smile on, wherever you walked, whomever you talked to, and all the time...[the extreme]. You would have a better sex-life than 90% of men on this planet. You would be more likeable and deemed as more charismatic than 99.999% of people on this planet.
And i'm talking this change alone. Just this one thing.
It's not "ideal".
But it's HARD to get so microcalibrated that you are at the ideal level. There are such minutiae differences that it's mindboggling :crazy:
So instead of being perfectionist and saying "because always smiling isn't ideal, i'll just do what i've always done"... Nah man, Just do it.
It's much better to overdo it... than to under do it. Since the ideal is quite close to the oversmiling extreme.
Smiling always (AlwysBeSmiling) is probably the fastest path to becoming a Don Juan. Over do it (get all the nice benefits), and over time you will naturally smooth it out to the right tone.
Don't throw away the thing that brings an 8 in results with 1 in effort, because it's not a "10".
