But if it's a red eye flight and I haven't slept at all, I'll say I'm a comedian. And then they say, "Do a joke." But if you're a magician you should be able to do a trick anywhere, any time of day.

The act of compassion begins with full attention, just as rapport does. You have to really see the person. If you see the person, then naturally, empathy arises.

You want to help them, and then that begins a compassionate act. So I'd say that compassion begins with attention.

All the time I feel like I screwed it up! But I don't know if that's because I can't separate myself from it enough.
