The Newbie assignment day 3 is nothing but this — hold eyes with ten people, notice down / side / up breaks as submit / neutral / dismiss. [1] Chase also writes about a sharper tool he has called the "look," the "death stare," or a predatory hold: eye contact that puts sexual tension (or fear, if you bung it) into the other person. Wielded with warmth it raises tension. Wielded without calibration it is creepy-guy land. The assignment installs the ability to hold. The look is a later amplitude.
