*Fun Fact: if you make the facial expression, youll also begin to feel the
emotion yourself.
Try it:
If you are talking to someone about a vacation or activity you think they like, are
they showing you genuine happiness, fake happiness, disgust or another emotion?
If you accuse someone of cheating or breaking an office rule, do they show surprise
or fear?
See if their facial expressions matches the context of the conversation or situation - youd
be surprised to see the true emotions behind what someone is telling you.
*Sometimes knowing what expression youre seeing is just as important as an emotion that
youre NOT seeing!
