"How am I supposed to know how you feel?"

You CAN GET BETTER at being aware of others emotions, and that can help you have more enjoyable and productive relationships...personally AND professionally. In fact, if you want to grow as a person, you NEED to grow in this area as well (no matter how good you are at this now...you can get better)

Three ideas about how to improve:

1) Slow down! Don't be in a hurry to wreck a perfectly good relationship...take time to respond rather than just reacting

2) Don't make unhelpful assumptions! If you are making assumptions about others emotions and react rashly you could be killing that sale/good will/relationship...respond thoughtfully instead!

3). ASK!!!! -- It is ok, you aren't a mind reader! You may have a good idea of how they are...but it can't hurt to ask. Even if you are wrong you show real concern and help them, and you get to a more productive place

What other ideas do you have about getting better in this area?
