This summer, next week, im going to compete at the national level in an fbla accounting competition in Anaheim, California because i have won 1st place at region, and then 1st place at state. Since no one else in the club advanced to nationals, i am kinda going alone. Im going with the art teacher (whom i don’t know) and her daughter (whom i also dont know and is 1 year older than me). On top of that, apparently, my club advisor (who is not going) had given them (the art teacher and her daughter) the impression that i am quiet, shy, and somewhat unenthusiastic. So this psychology book i read said this pre-judgement hurts my first impression charisma. So to help with that i was wondering if i opened up (maybe tell personal success/life stories about myself and sacrifices i made or something) and acted a lil enthusiastic, would that make me be perceived as more charismatic?… and eventually be more affiliated with them?
