Understanding the Limitations of First Impressions and Reading Others

Research shows that while we can make accurate assessments of a person's personality from first impressions, we are not good at reading their thoughts and feelings. To improve this, we should focus on making others more readable rather than solely working on our own reading abilities. Opening up conversations, asking unanticipated questions, and concentrating on the person's voice rather than body language can help in better understanding others.
