Very often, what we believe to be true is not true. This is because a first impression is just that, a first impression. There is not nearly enough time to get to know someone simply by the first impression they make. If one does go by first impressions, he or she will be open to scrutiny because of the choices they have made. In many cases, we get so infatuated with first impressions that it throws us off our path to success. It is funny how just one attractive person can throw your whole life into a new direction.
