People come and say “I don’t know. They don’t go the extra mile for me. They don’t care about me. They don’t support me.”
Everybody’s so multitasking. Everybody’s on their phone the whole time. Do you know what you’re communicating to someone when they talk to you and you’re on your phone? You basically tell them, listen, you don’t matter to me so much. You’re also not so fun. So to make my time more valuable, I’m actually going to do something else at the same time and occasionally look up to you.
So the next time someone talks to you, put your phone away. Shut down your computer. If you’re not available, tell them when you will be. Because when you do that, you communicate to the other person, listen, you matter to me. And at that moment, magic happens. At that moment, you matter to them.
