Daily Tip: The best way to connect is to be present and respectful!

We all want to have friends, and yet, people are all different.
Some folks want to talk to you about boring stuff, and so we drift away in our heads and do not listen.
The best way to really be present is to find people who talk about stuff you are keen about.
In a perfect world that would be 24/7.
Unfortunately, some unenthusiastic drone may need your help or undivided attention and the best thing to do is remember: this isn't going to last forever, and I'd best show some respect if I want the same in return.
So, be as present as you can with people, and remember: if you want others to show you respect, you must first give it.
Peace,
Amy Zents
