It is an excellent piece of advice! What I think he means is that most people don't react to what you do but how what you do makes them feel. People that are geared towards logical thinking should run a small emulation inside their head of how their actions would make their loved ones feel in response to their actions or inactions (yeap that last one is more tricky...). It doesn't have to be rational or fair all the time and requires you either are similar to that person so you can predict what they will feel or that you understand that person and can imagine what they would feel. If you are a logical person and you don't master this then people will think you are inconsiderate and will subconsciously punish you for your lack of empathy... EDIT: To emulate better the opposite sex seek advice from a completely honest outspoken friend of that sex.
