Missive 84: Understanding Empathy

Listen Later

Hello my Manish Peeps!

In this episode we will discuss the difference between empathy and sympathy and talk through if we really want empathy in our life. This will cover the following defined points:

  • Empathy is defined as the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. This is different then sympathy, which is feelings of pity and sorrow for someone else's miss fortune.
  • Having sympathy means you believe you understand the feelings they are going through in a not-so-positive moment. Empathy means you share the feelings they are having within this moment, positive or not.
  • It is hard enough to manage our own thoughts and feelings, remaining positive in our Now. Having empathy is the allowing of others feelings to modify your own. Probably not a great thing to occur.
