    This talk has inspired me to be more intentional in my everyday interactions. I often go through the motions, especially with people I see regularly, but now I'm thinking about how I can create more meaningful moments and leave positive lasting impressions.

    The concept of meaningful emotional surprise is something I've never considered before, but it makes so much sense. I'm definitely gonna try to incorporate this into my daily interactions, both at work and in my personal life. Might be a game-changer for building stronger relationships.
