F a s t - F o r w a r d i n g
W h e n y o u w a n t to develop a deeper b o n d with someone y o u ' v e
just met, mentally fast-forward your relationship with that person in
your mind's e y e . S p e n d a few minutes privately imagining that the
t w o of y o u have been g o o d friends for several years. Take w h a t y o u
already know about that person and project it forward in time. For
example, if y o u know that he or she is a golfer, imagine that y o u ' v e
played numerous rounds of golf together and shared m a n y positive
experiences on your favorite course. Feel the emotional bond between
y o u becoming stronger. T h e next time y o u see the other person, you'll
likely feel that your friendship has already b e c o m e stronger, and the
other person may pick up on that, too.
Fast-forwarding is a natural technique y o u probably use without
even thinking about it. It's c o m m o n to daydream about a possible
future with someone y o u like, especially a romantic interest. But y o u
can also consciously apply fast-forwarding to build a more loving c o n -
nection with a n e w friend, acquaintance, or business contact.
