Step 2: The Art of Not Saying Anything Useful
In our previous step, you learned how to maintain a safe emotional distance from the conversation. Now, it's time to take it to the next level.
Here are the key takeaways for Step 2:
- Develop an impassive expression
- Practice saying "hmm" in response to any question or statement
- Train yourself to nod while thinking "no, no, no, I'm not thinking about it"
- Learn to type "I'm fine" in response to any inquiry about your emotional state
- Develop a talent for staring off into space for extended periods
Remember, controlled silence is not just a technique, it's an art form. Practice regularly to achieve mastery.
