Key 2: Deposits do not occur until the recipient considers it a deposit
You simply don’t know what constitutes a deposit until you understand the other person. For some, receiving feedback and comments on things they’ve done is a deposit. For others, it’s a withdrawal. If your motives for making a deposit are not sincere, others will feel manipulated. It’s not about doing or saying things that look positive. Your intentions can be good, but only the person you are interacting with can decide whether your gesture is a deposit or a withdrawal.
