You can buy a ton of self help books and they will teach you a lot of stuff to become successful, especially in social/business settings.
However, the simple tip that I havent come across in any books I have read is the fact that if you make it a habit to comfort people, esp in areas they are already unsure or less confident in, you will go a long way in getting people to trust you.
Getting people to trust you at a personal level is THE key to success.
I agree! Genuine empathy is a blessing to the person receiving...I don't remember ever seeing this pointed out either, except in The Bible. Wise words fren!
The young Mother having the panic attack because she was nervous speaking to him and apparently recovering from something felt at ease because POTUS is genuinely kind and she felt this. This was such a precious moment to me.
This is why Bible touched be so deeply. I thank my friend who suggested I should read the Gospels first, before trying to dig into the rest of the Bible, because when I read Jesus' words and actions, all I could feel was the deep empathy he had for everyone. I finally understood what Jesus has been about.
This is why I feel very sad when I see people who use Bible as a weapon to put everyone down and judge everyone and twist every verse. And they genuinely think they are good Christians.
WThat was a great suggestion by your friend and I also love to recommend Psalms. It's just pure praise, love, despair, joy and more all crying out to The Lord..
I feel sad also about the hypocrisy and legalism used by some Christians as leverage over others. Legalism killed Jesus.
How can we be the living example of Jesus' love if we're arguing with each other...
Yes, but also Jesus killed Legalism. He always debated the Pharisees and always defeated them at their own logic.
And from what I understood from the Acts of the Apostles, Jesus "reset" the God's teachings from old testament, which were very rigid rules that got loopholed by the Pharisees into a new system where it was based on the spirit of the God rather than the word of law.
I think we need that same reset again. We cant have thousands of pages of rules and regulations for every aspect of life, and whoever finds the better loop hole gets to rule the rest.
Thanks for the recommendation of Psalms, I have been kinda lost as to what to read next, so I will take it up.
Yes. I have noticed that when the comfort offered is not genuine, people will know. That warmth will be missing, and you can feel the coldness. Thats why its important to listen to your instincts.

Yes...so long as that trust is DESERVED, and the comfort offered is genuine, not manipulative. Which is DJT to the marrow. Father of his country, 2.0.

Exactly...God gave us these instincts to keep us safe!
Beautiful & true Rain!
