How do you treat your connections?
Forgiving is being able to let go in your heart and the bitterness or any anger or foolishness that you feel about yourself. So we have to make sure we know when to separate ourselves from certain connections as well. So that being said, I just kind of wanted to see who and how you protect your connections. Are you very careful about who you connections business with or personal with? Some people go to a lot of events and meet new people all the time and make new connections

But I think that one of the things that happens in relationships is we're constantly making unconscious assessments. I think we're making assessments on do I like you? In other words, is there some warmth I feel towards a person? Do I trust this person? And are they competent? Are they good at what they do?
From your end, when you're meeting someone for the first time or someone's meeting you for the first time, they're going to make an assessment of you based on just that meeting. They don't really get to know you. And then once they get to know you or they see your expertise or what you bring to the table, even if it's personal, at that point, it may change
