Okay, so there's frontend so like let's say, if you're building a website, the front end is all the things you see so like the physical elements of the page and the buttons and this part of the form and this this this color and this stuff, but the visual aspects of the of what you're using right? that's that's front end. Then we have backend. So like how how does your input, get processed, stored manage all that stuff? Then, it - see what is platform, it's not even easy to explain.

Our discussion topic for the day is “Empathy“:

My husband and I have been married for 6 years, and I’ve always noticed I can do much more easily empathize with others, but when it comes to problems he’s having, it’s like I hit a wall. I try to connect and listen and empathize, but I lack that same emotional feeling. It’s harder. I feel more critical. I feel more disconnected. It feels weird that I can better empathize with a coworker than my spouse.

Tune in, you’ll love it

(Part 1/3): How to Engage Your Audience With An Attractive Character

|Published on February 7, 2022

I thought it’d be nice to share some of the things I’ve been bookmarking as I read through Russell Brunson’s “Dotcom Secrets”. Starting with the profile of an “Attractive Character”.
