A gazing fight is when two people stare at each other until someone blinks, laughs, or looks the other way. The first person to do so is declared the loser. There are several things you can do to increase your winning chances such as developing techniques to keep your eyes moist or distract your opponents. This article will teach you how to win a staring contest using some of the aforementioned techniques.
Step
Method 1 of 2: Avoiding Blinking and Distraction
Step 1. Define the rules
Determining the terms of winning and losing before starting to compete is important so that no one is disturbed when competing.
- To avoid commotion and protest later, set clear rules for the match with your opponent before starting.
- Some rules usually say that a face-to-face fight ends when someone blinks, looks the other way, or laughs.
- Some additional uncommon rules include prohibiting making funny faces or waving your hands in front of your opponent's eyes.
Step 2. Wet your eyes before starting
By doing this before you start a match, you can keep yourself from blinking for a long time.
- Blink or close your eyes tightly for a long time right before starting the match.
- If you can, yawn for tears.
- All of these methods will prevent your eyes from feeling dry or itchy when competing.
- Avoid eye drops or face creams. It's best to avoid anything that can make your eyes itch or irritate and make you blink.
Step 3. Relax and be calm
If you feel uncomfortable or agitated you may be distracted or blink.
- If you can, sit or stand in a comfortable position.
- Don't strain your eyes.
- Don't focus too much on the person in front of you.
Step 4. Let your mind wander
If you focus too much on your opponent or win, you may make mistakes.
- Most people tend to stare without blinking if they are looking at an empty space while emptying their minds.
- Think of a topic that really interests you, and focus your mental energy on that topic.
- Don't let your mind wander too far, or you'll turn your head the other way.
Step 5. Squint your eyes a little every now and then
This can be helpful when your eyes feel dry.
- When you feel like you can't help the dryness in your eyes and need to blink, squint your eyes slightly.
- This will help restore moisture to your eyes.
- Do this covertly. If you squint too much, you'll look like you're blinking.
Step 6. Practice in front of a mirror
This can help you develop the duration of staring without blinking and avoid distractions.
- If you keep losing staring fights, practice first.
- Practice staring in the bathroom mirror, and measure how long you can stare without blinking.
- Try to stare longer each time you practice.
Method 2 of 2: Making Your Opponent Lose
Step 1. Know your opponent
Knowing your opponent's weaknesses can help you win.
- If your opponent is easily distracted, then you can target those weaknesses.
- Know how long your opponent can stare without blinking and try not to blink for at least the same duration.
- Find out what makes your opponent laugh.
Step 2. Make your opponent laugh
- Make strange faces or sounds.
- Make your eyes wide or squint.
- Tell a joke that can make him laugh.
- Be careful not to make yourself laugh, or you will lose.
Step 3. Try to annoy your opponent
Try to make him turn or blink.
- Wave your arms at the sides to make a distracting motion.
- Try dropping something to make him turn around.
Step 4. Stay focused
Your opponent may try to annoy you in the same way.
- Think of something that makes you angry or sad. This will keep you from laughing.
- Know when your opponent does something funny, but don't react.
- Avoid listening to noises or other distractions.
- Look directly into the pupil of your opponent's eye to avoid seeing any other part of his face.
Tips
- Gazing practice with babies. Babies usually blink once every few minutes.
- Contact lenses will be very helpful. This can keep your eyes moist, thereby reducing the need to blink.
- When you read, don't blink too often. Read often, as this will help your brain and increase your chances of winning. After all, reading is fun.
- Exercise with your family members.
- Don't cross your eyes too early, because that will make you blink and then lose.
