#OneWinWednesday: Stop Zoom RBF
 
Think about your most recent virtual meeting. What was the predominant look on people’s faces? RBF, right?  How did you feel in that meeting? Speaking for myself, I am less inclined to speak when nobody is smiling.
 
Stephen Covey said, “The only person over whom you have direct and immediate control is yourself.”
 
Try this:
Instead of having Resting B#### Face, force yourself to have a Smiling Rest Face. Don’t look like a psycho with a large grin when discussing budget cuts. Instead, do just do enough for your mouth to curve slightly upward.
 
Notice how you feel.
Notice if anyone else starts mirroring you and if the mood and level of engagement changes in the meeting.
