That is not an inborn trait.
It's not like Matt was born under a different star or he has some special charisma.
It's probably that Matt has learned how to communicate oftentimes by failing to communicate or oftentimes by feeling like he's left out and paying attention to how other people behave and sort of just noticing a little bit more what's going on.
What we know is that anyone can become a super communicator because it's just a set of skills that any of us can learn the same way we can learn to read.
But as a society, we have not said that's an important set of skills for a little while.
And I think that with the Surgeon General and others coming out, we're beginning to say, right, actually, this is critical.
Is there a difference between super communicators and super connectors?
So I think that there's some people, the answer is yes, depending on what you mean by super connector.
There's like, sometimes there's super connectors who are like kind of transactional, right?
They're super service level, like, or transactional.
Or they just know everyone and you're like, I need a favor.
And they're like, oh, this guy can help you out.
Now that being said, when we communicate, and this is one of the things that we've learned in the last 10 years, you and I having this conversation right now, we're totally unaware of this, but our pupils are dilating at the same rate.
our breath patterns are actually starting to match each other.
Most importantly, if I could see inside your brain and you could see inside mine, what you would see is our brainwaves start matching each other.
Really?
This is what communication is.
Communication is I have a feeling or an idea, I describe it to you, and you experience to some degree that feeling or that idea.
And it's actually reflected in your brain.
Literally, the neuroscience, the neurochemicals, you feel what you're feeling.
