Thought Tweet #523

by Rick Baker
On Jul 18, 2012

Thought Tweet #523 When you help people relax you have their attention...or, at least, a better chance to have it.

 

The Thinking Behind The Tweet

Most people lead hectic lives. Or, they think they do [and their perception is their reality]. When people think they are too busy, they are too busy. When people think they are relaxing, they cannot be thinking they are too busy. When people are not thinking they are too busy, we have a chance to catch their attention.
