First impressions? I do what I do and see what comes of it. Really, there's no assurance for me there. I don't worry about controlling it, because it is what it is. Or at least, I try not to worry. That's just added hassle. As for being nervous, I suppose there are general ways of dealing with that? But people being nervous are a very common thing. I'm not sure we should consider first impressions so crucial as to try and escape from what's common.
