Be calmly confident

Gain the inner strength to look anyone in the eye—any time—calmly and comfortably.

Connecting with another person’s eyes is a high-energy experience. Remember when you were a teenager looking around the classroom and unexpectedly met someone else’s eyes and quickly looked away—especially if it was someone of the opposite sex. Although that can be a delicious and desirable moment, it is too intense unless you have learned the skills of staying consciously connected with such high voltage, such bright light.

Because learning this skill involves doing something that we would never think of on our own, we all need help with it. We need a coach to guide us and to make us feel safe with no longer interrupting our own inner experiences. The confident skill to look anyone in the eye without flinching helps us with all our other problems, too.
