"Whenever I meet someone,
I try to imagine {her} wearing an invisible sign
that says: make me feel important.
I respond to this sign immediately,
and it works wonders."
-Mary Kay Ash

It is argued that our greatest need today is to be heard, followed by
being validated. In our DOing culture, our rushing around, we rarely
take the time to deeply listen to each other, to acknowledge our
importance.
By focusing on the other person, looking for what's working for them,
what qualities the person is demonstrating, you become fully present
to the conversation. It is only by being in the moment, that you can
truly experience and enjoy the connection with the other person - this
is also where the 'magic' happens!
If you were in conversation with Mary Kay you would no doubt leave
the interaction feeling better than when you entered it. You would be
touched by the interaction. What a gift! What a legacy!
You can choose to leave a legacy of touching people, making their
lives better, just by being with you. Share a smile, listen deeply,
make them feel important. And you will be rewarded, in ways beyond
your imagination!
