The reason Geralt is taking so long to respond is me taking so long to determine what option to take in game conversations.

[hivanation-]

Tried slow languid movements and immediately felt confident and strong....missed the train twice.

Watching this really brings home how well Cavill nailed all of Geralt's personality traits and mannerisms.

Geralt has the ultimate advantage: the writer is on his side.

Girl: Oh hi! How's it going?
Me: *confidently turns back and walks away*

Actually Geralts slow movements are something that he does on purpose. As mutant he is much, MUCH quicker than avarage human so he does this to hide his ability from enemies and to prevent people from exluding him in situations like contract taking or just gaining info. (it was explained in books)

[DemianCorvus]

I just want to add the fun fact that Henry moves slow acting as Geralt because, as said by him and also as a reference to the books, Geralt is usually on high alert and doesn't want others to know how fast he can actually move thanks to mutation or alchemical stuff. Which actually makes sense for someone who usually has to fight and doesn't know if any normal person could eventually be an enemy.

"Move like a predator"

*Grows neckbeard and puts on fedora*

[Nyuffykah]

Words are spells. The powerful people know that. Lying is to cause harm to oneself. When you constantly look inward to align with your true self speech and movements are slower. It is very refreshing to meet such an individual in person. I felt you are not fully understanding this one but great channel neverthless.

some NOTES here

1. SLOW, LANGUID MOVEMENTS: When you move slowly & comfortably you sub communicates to other people that you do not feel scared & pressured. That is perceived as confidence. Move at a pace that is self determined than environment determined.
2. BE COMFORTABLE TURNING BACK ON OTHERS: The person who ends the conversation & walks away usually the one with more power in a given situation. But don’t be like Geralt in this situation, for eg when someone enters a room you could turn & wave but better is to stand up head on & hand shake.
3. CONFIDENT PEOPLE CAN AFFORD TO HANDICAP THEMSELVES: You can do this by being more honest especially where you think it might set you back socially for eg if you have a nerdy hobby that you think other people might judge, often better off speaking about it with enthusiasm rather than downplaying it.
4. EXTREME NON-REACTIVE: When we notice that people who are resilient & their calmness are not easily feared we view them as more confident & capable. Whatever is coming at them that they can handle. firmly build up an internal calm so you are not always in constant reaction to the world.


As always my crazy passion is to share summaries like started doing it on my channel with PDF summaries ✌
People say to me more often that I am slow in reacting to anything. Does that mean I am like Geralt? 😜

Slow languid movements is how I get out of bed everyday.
Actually I'm feeling so confident, I'll just stay in bed.

[Deadaccount]

Honestly I love the phsycology behind emotions and scenes in movies, it’s so fascinating

[NurchinsCryptids]

I'm glad he clarified that turning your back on people isn't a great strategy in modern society but now I definitely feel more prepared if I ever end up in a tense political dispute with a local lord

[llfeforce]

I've noticed a huge difference in how ppl react
to me now...

Since I started wearing these epic shoulder pads and body armour,
And carrying a giant 4 foot sword everywhere I go

[joshuarichardson]

"Move slowly and languidly..." I don't know, Geralt drinks a lot of potions. I think he might just be stoned...

[planck-]

I actually tried to start delaying my speech, slowing my reactions and blinking slower and that I think is why the company shrink came to visit our department for a wellness check.

Great video! My *summary* of the 4 ways Geralt of Rivia demonstrates confidence:
1. Geralt has slow, languid movements.
○ Deep confidence is about being able to move at a pace that is self-determined rather than environmentally determined
○ Animal kingdom analogy
○ Predator movements = slow and languid; nothing to be afraid of; comfortably energized
□ If you get too lethargic, energize yourself with a stretch or quick breaths
○ Prey movements = herky-jerky; in constant anticipation of danger
□ If this happens, take a deep breath and open your body language to slow down
2. Geralt is very comfortable turning his back on others.
a. Animal kingdom: sign that something is unthreatening / unimportant
i. Only predators can afford that
b. Caution: That will make the other person feel unimportant (to you)!
3. Confident people can afford to handicap themselves. ("Handicap principle")
a. Animal example: male peacock's feathers -> no other purpose than look sexy
b. Example: Say something that might hurt your reputation -> ppl assume you must be strong enough not to need people to like you -> you come across as confident & more likeable
c. How to implement that in everday life? Be less socially calculating and instead more honest in your self-expression, e. g. about your geeky hobbies.
4. Geralt is extremely non-reactive
a. The ability to have a sturdy/resilient emotional center = key creator/indicator of confidence
b. Low reactivity signifies you can handle whatever (stressor, problem etc.) life throws at you
c. Animal kingdom: strong emotional mastery can trump physical strength in dominance battles
d. It's important to recognize your specific emotional triggers; make a list proactively
e. However, that doesn't mean swallowing your emotions; have the courage to be vulnerabe
• What you want is unshakable deep confidence -> the rest (body language etc.) will follow naturally
