Welcome to the Game Change Your Life podcast with Dave Anderson.

Now, here's Dave with an intentional mindset minute.

Welcome to Game Change Your Life. I'm Dave Anderson with another intentional mindset minute,

where I share quick hits from my latest book's intentional mindset and elevate your excellence. We post them on Fridays to help you think right, do right, get better,

and become more. Here is the topic. People shouldn't judge. People shouldn't judge a book by its cover.

Well, here's a clue. Most do. And it only takes a matter of seconds.

Your presence is largely determined by how you show up, how you look, how you groom, how you move,

what you say, and how you say it. Be intentional, not incidental.

The impression that they make within the first few seconds

will influence everything you do from that point on for a long time.

They'll look for the things that validate that impression

and dismiss the things that would contradict it.

Make sure they're validating the right thing.
