The Nonverbal Circular Learning Theory
Keeping your eyes open and observing those around you can bring an awareness that brings understanding. As you analyze what you see you begin to interpret things that you may not have noticed before.
This in turns enables you to implement your own plan of action as you are now a bit more informed. The results depend on how well you observe and understand what you are seeing.
There may be situations where you need to go through this nonverbal circular learning technique more than once in order to fully understand what is right in front of you.
Learning these techniques help you not only in business but also in your personal life. It will be harder for someone to fool you.
