Importance Of First Impressions

First impressions are key.  It could be the make it or break it point in a job interview or in a relationship. Are these impressions even more important then we thought? A new study at Loyola University Chicago, first impressions are even more permanent than we thought.

In the study, they had students fill out evaluations on their professors at the beginning of taking a course and at the end.  What they found?  Only 3% of the people's final evaluations came out different than their first impressions.

If you apply that to your life for every 100 people you meet, odds are 97 of them are going to stick with their first impression of you unless something major happens to change things. 

Major events or simple things can change impressions. Have you ever met anyone that you had this happen with?
