Have you ever wished that you could connect with someone fast? Whether personal or business, getting on the same page is a huge advantage. The secret is simple. Establish common ground right from the beginning. It's easy to laugh at folks talking about the weather, but isn't that common ground? How about chatting about a football game or the latest hot movie? It's called a "Point of Connection." The more points you find, the better will connect. When you find familiar ground with another person, you are no longer strangers.
