How can you get someone to empathize more?

In trying to improve empathy, there are 4 factors we can hone in on:

1. Perspective taking - Can you understand a person's thought process and how they view the situation/the world?

2. Empathic Concern - Now that you feel what they are feeling, do you care?

3. Empathic Accuracy - Are you accurate in your assessment of their emotions and thoughts?

4. Enacting Empathy - Will you do anything about your empathy?

I'll be curious to see if you try this and if any of it works for you!
