How important are first impressions to you? Do they end up being the lasting impression you have about someone?
Well, first impressions aren’t final. You can’t say you know a book by reading it’s first few pages can you? But first impressions matter cause they stick . Like you hear people talk about the first time they met a person or so. We remember it more. It may be true that first impressions may be final in many life situations but not always. In my case it is mostly not true. I never judge a person by the first impression but from long association. First impression may be very misleading. From my practical experience, I have found that first impression is mostly not the last impression. Our first impression may be influenced by our prejudice. Moreover, the person may hide his reality in the first contact. There can be misunderstanding between the two persons. It takes long time to really understand a person.
It is very true to say that first impression is the last impression but with lot of efforts impression could be changed .In first impression, people got an image of you in their minds and they start to think according to the image of you ,they have in their head. Then they make a thought in their mind about your most probable action that you are going to do in that situation but when your action or thought don’t match with their thoughts about you or impression of you. Then your impression starts to change in their head. Finally as they know you more with different action or thoughts then their impression changes about you .
