A mindset to have FUN meeting strangers ...

SEBASTIAAN VAN DER SCHRIER
About this episode

Want to have FUN meeting people?

I interview my good friend Christoph Schiessl on his mindset for meeting new people. Christoph is totally at ease and relaxed when meeting people, and has a great time doing so. 

He has a wide social network with a wide variety of backgrounds and truly loves people. 



This is a fun interview jam-packed with nuggets of gold on how to have a good time socially. Pick up on the vibe, and get a feel for what it’s like to be at ease and relaxed socially. Enjoy.


QUOTE: 
When I meet someone I really try to be there 100%. I’m very focused in that moment on who I’m dealing with and the time I’m spending with that person. I guess that’s also what people appreciate. cause they feel that you’re actually there at that moment, giving your time, showing an interest in what they have to say. For that moment I’m really there.
