Studies shows that exercising does not only guarantee you better health, but it also gives you a better deal. When you to begin to exercise, your body builds an adrenaline rush that gives you the ability to not get nervous. Now try talking on the phone while you're exercising, then try talking on the phone when you're not exercise. Both strategies produce different outcomes and that outcome is if you succeeding in bargaining or not. Exercising while on the phone allows you to bargain better when you're not exercising. Massachusetts Institute of Technology conducted this experiment and one of their study's co-authors said “If you’re sweating, and your heart rate is up, it’s seen as a sign something is going wrong, that you’re too nervous, off-balance, flustered,” he said. “Whereas we’re showing that something could be very right.” The positive outcome is that you're able to make better deals over the phone which is amazing because you can get a raise or a discount. Moreover; you're able to make better business. The catch to this research is that you have to be confident when you're bargaining over the phone or else you won't have better luck.
Applied science is innovating to real world application and the results creates a relationship between physical and mental states. Stated in the article both of these terms are very confusing because emotions deals with physiological response and how a person experiences and labels it. Physical state deals with the health of your body and mental state is health of the mind. Balancing both of these states create overall well being. This article connects to Health with Ms. Pacheco because we review these terms in class and you can see it plays a role in applied science especially in the M.I.T research.
I really like this it's so informational. I never knew that if you are sweating and your heart rate is up it's a sign that something being wrong. This is good to know for my personal use and for our upcoming fitness project. I see an improvement in your writing, but I feel like you could have added more of your thoughts on the article. I am kind of confused on the transition between paragraphs. I feel it could have went smoother.

ReplyDeleteWow, that logic of sweating equals greater bargaining amazes me. Learned something new good job!
ReplyDeleteIt does make sense that if you can control your sweating and heartrate as you excersize, you could do better in a negotiation. Interesting text.
