Rob - Infuse Empathy Into The World

What could you learn if you met 10K people?How could you impact the world if 10K people met you?Today I want to introduce you to Rob, a man on a mission to do just that, to connect with, get to know, learn from, and share a part of himself with 10 thousand people around the worldI met Rob as a part of his project that he is almost 7 years in on, and one he expects will take another 7 to complete. Rob is one who I believe is succeeding in his mission to infuse empathy into the world through human connection. His consistent dedication to his project has already allowed him to meet with and learn from over 5K amazing people! Getting to sit down and share a part of Rob's story is something I am honored to be able to do, to give you a chance to see what inspired him and what keeps him going on this path he has set before himself.We talk about the importance of making others feel seen and heard, why everything on top of time with the people he cares about is a luxury, and why he values delayed gratification.He shares why saying I love you to friends is a practice he is grateful for, why understanding that we are not all dealt the same cards is important when we evaluate our own actions and how we view another's, and his hope that we might not allow ourselves to fall into the pattern of comparison.We talk about the challenge of knowing what specifically needs to be done to succeed as an entrepreneur, the art of talking to and connecting with others, and what it looks like to use that ability to help others begin a conversation with someone new.So tune in today and meet Rob, one that is on a mission to connect with humanity, one who sees the value in what we can learn from each other, and continually invests his time and resources to share that with others. Rob is a gentle, easy to connect with human, he is a listener which stood out to me so much; in a world where we listen to respond, or worry what might be going on around us, Rob is genuinely present with whomever is in front of him. And to you Rob thank you, thank you for your willingness to listen and share time with me as a part of your own project, and thank you for your time in being a part of mine. You have reminded me the power in listening, of not worrying how some may perceive us, and the power in learning from someone else. I'm excited to see where life continues to take you as you continue to pursue what you have set before yourself with joy and consistency. @robs10kfriends
