Body Language Expert Explains Trump’s Awkward Day At The NATO Summit
It may be mere speculation that Donald Trump is compensating for something. Yes, certain behavior may give that impression.
I guess most people agree that Trump wants to be seen as an alpha male. We needn’t have to look further than to his body language to confirm that. It seems to be so important for him — that his desperately desire appears more often as insecurity than as a sign of strength. Someone with a strong self-confidence wouldn’t do it like that. Even though it is good to remember former US presidents; most of them showed some kind of bit strange alpha male behavior — even Barack Obama. That’s how US-Presidents do it!

What are you waiting for?
What are you waiting for? Start today! Consider this: right now is always the best moment of your life. Being in the now makes it easier to handle anything, regret nothing, and love life and everyone and everything in it in all its wonderful, endearing imperfection. Nothing is overwhelming, insurmountable, or unforgivable when it is considered in moment-sized parcels. And yes: this moment is also the best to take action to live our values. “In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.” Theodore Roosevelt

The Importance of Showing Appreciation
