When we leave the house we\u2019re either imbuing confidence and charisma or we\u2019re feeling kind of meh, right? The reasons why are sometimes in our control, but mostly it\u2019s just a feeling. It\u2019s that moment that you look in the mirror and think \u201cDamn I look ______.\u201d<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><strong>Read also: <a href=\"https:\/\/therealdaily.com\/big-data\/home-sales-restrained\/\">Home sales being restrained by real and imaginary obstacles<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-91813\" src=\"http:\/\/theamericangenius.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/bar.jpg\" alt=\"bar\" width=\"100\" height=\"19\" \/><br \/>\nNow, the subtle science of human perception has brought us closer to understanding how we can appear a little bit more intelligent when we\u2019re out in the world.

It\u2019s not just a perception thing either. A study at University of Melbourne&#8217;s Centre for Eye Research recently connected short sightedness with intelligence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Take care of yourself<\/strong><br \/>\nAppearances matter and we associate a good looking person with a lot of positive behaviors.
