For example, you were looking at a tempting cake in the show window. Just about stepping forward, your husband said, "We need to control our sugar intake." Does the sugar control have to be done at that moment and on that specific-looking tasty cake? Probably not. But you stopped. Hey! Your dear husband is influencing.
Traveling in Europe, I saw many travelers holding cameras and talking. They are creating a travel log for YouTube. I wonder how many surrounding details they will miss if they can relax, emerge into the mid-century town, and feel the time passing through these pebble-paved roads and well-architected houses. I am sure their mind is occupied at least 40% by their imagined viewers. Do they need to please their audience? Do they lose some of their own from this? Hell Yes!
