    Internalization becomes critical in terms of starting with the people, finding common ground. People want to be heard. You know, Dale Carnegie got this right way back in the early part of the 1900s when he wrote his book, "How to Win Friends and Influence People," listen first, listen first. If people are heard, it's amazing. Once people are heard, when you can say, "That I understand, that must be really frustrating." And then go from there, it's amazing.
