The Importance of Silence in a Conversation
A study out a harvard showed that talking about yourself activates the same pleasure centre in the brain as sex and heroine. So i'll use small talk as a way to let people do that. You would be surprised, if you let silence go, what people will end up filling that silence because they feel an obligation to fill it, right? Sayi sometimes i'll be like, i was awkward. I don't ever know what to say in these awkward silences. It's not supposed to sound perfect. Just be intentional, listen and try to be nice.
