An "empathy journal" is precisely what I'm going to do, Card. Perhaps a "reaction journal", too. Strangely, for me, they seem to be related. My lack of empathy makes me react. Blech. What ugly personality traits

I am not a patient person so reading "keep it up for years, and that's how you change your personality" makes me feel like I'm never going to get there but I will. And it will take years.

With your "reaction journal", Card, do you find that sometimes you have to fake it so you can get there? I'm curious about how others clean up their reactions.
