Tedtalks about body language and hormone levels
http://www.wimp.com/bodylanguage/
TL;DR
we all know that hormone levels affect our body language (those who feel less dominant and stressed out tend to pose in more introverted poses, arms crossed, head down etc, while those who feel more dominant tend to take up more space, confidence, etc)
whats interesting about this talk is she talks about a study taht was done where its proven that the inverse is also true. Standing in a dominant pose just for shits n giggles for 2 minutes actually causes the brain to produce more testosterone(dominance) and lower the levels of cortisol (the stress hormone), while the inverse is also true. Standing in introverted poses actually causes the brain to lower levels of testosterone and heighten levels of cortisol.
TL;DR-2
Be a baos, give no fucks. Even if you dont feel like it, act like it, your brain will follow suit
