About this listen

On a personal level there are two ways to win friends and influence people. One, force: Be my friend or I'll beat you up. Or two, cooperation: I'll make something you want and trade it to you for something I want. Force leads to fair weather friends. Once the perception of being able to deliver on that threat of force recedes, friends quickly disappear. A win-lose relationship is never going to be very successful in keeping a relationship.or friendship over the long term. Cooperation leads to longer term more stable relationships. It's win-win. Trust increases over time.
