    The Art of Effortless Conversation

    Лучшая цитата из The Art of Effortless Conversation

    “

    The science suggests that being genuinely curious about the other person is actually more important than being clever or entertaining. When you approach interactions with genuine interest rather than trying to impress, the pressure completely disappears—you're not performing anymore; you're exploring.
