1.29.07

Today's class was pretty chill. Again, learned some things that can make me a better communicator.
One of the points Bro. Adams mentioned was how people trusts us when there is a high EBA. The more we deposit, the higher the trust fund is. One of the ways we can do this is through rephrasing the content ACCURATELY. This has worked really well for me (but I do not want to use this with kids from our class since they'll know what I am up to--being empathetic).

Parroting in the other hand will annoy people and give you withdrawals from the EBA. I have done this too especially with girls I don't care and they ended up not caring eventually at the conversation.

Then Bradams summed up the class with this statement (concerning empathetic listening):
"We get caught up with our "what is" than other people's "what is".

True dat.
