I Hear You: The Surprisingly Simple Skill Behind Extraordinary Relationships by Michael S. Sorensen
4.0
A self-help book about improving your relationships through validation. It's very short.
A key principle is 'you are validating the other person, not their beliefs or opinions'.
Cultivating empathy, which entails identifying and sharing the emotion of the other person. This is the part which seems hardest to me. What if I don't share the other person's emotion? Should I fake it? What if it would be wrong to share the other person's emotion?
Some food for thought here, though.
A lot of this material can be found on the author's blog.
