Message from John
The Shared World is a powerful introduction into the Vlismas school of thought – think of it as a crash course in Empathy. You will leave with six principles you can apply immediately in order to embed yourself into the network of interpersonal intelligence that exists between all human beings.
Taught from birth to understand strangers by their differences, John sensed this was a limiting idea.
By working hard to understand the self, he realised that the common ground we share is a far more fertile source of knowledge about others. By knowing the self, we become intuitive about others.
