Tonight I will sleep in the White Mountains of east-central
California at a high, lonely place aptly called, camping bed, Grand View
Campground. At 8000 feet on the western flank of the range,
it provides an overview of Owens Valley, and an awesome
panorama of the Range of Light, the High Sierra. A small dirt
track leads west from the campground through the sage
and Pinon Pine to some craggy outcrops distinctly
uncomfortable for sitting.

Mirror and Matching; The Basis of Rapport and Communication Skills!
Can you remember a time when you met someone for the first time and it just seems to click? An instant bond between the two of you, an instant ‘like-ability’ or trust. You can literally FEEL, that connection!
That connection is called Rapport! It is, teaching context clues, the basis and foundation for every meaningful interaction between two or more people.
Rapport is about establishing an environment of trust and understanding, to respect and honor the other person’s world. This allows the person the freedom to fully express their ideas and feelings and know they’ll be respected and appreciated by you. Rapport, teaching context clues, creates the space for the person to feel listened and responded to, even when you dis-agree with what the other person says or does.
