First Impression
First impressions are helpful and important. Yet they are certainly not everything.
A quick first impression can give you a feel for what's going on. Still, there's much substance that lies beneath the surface.
Allow your instincts to guide you without letting them dominate you. Do the work and dig deeper before making any long-term judgments or commitments.
In presenting yourself, seek to make an excellent first impression. Be sure, however, to also have the depth of substance that will faithfully back up that initial positive impression.
Those who are quick to judge, without considering all the facts, often make serious and irreversible mistakes. More often than not, hasty judgments lead to trouble, alienation, anger, frustration and regret.
Pay attention to your first impression. And let that first impression be a starting point rather than a final conclusion.

nice one...i too agree wid da idea of looking deeper to reconfirm ur first ompression of someone else.but if u expect others to do tht for u...it cudnt be always psble.da fact remains..there are a few who emanate gr8 first impressions to decieve(very neatly tht too..nowadays in interviews).wat they do later...well,depends upon u.
True..I need to remember this for my first impression always is the wrong impression!
First impression IS important, as in most cases its also the last impression!
