Episode notes

Make time every few hours for a face-to-face exchange with a person you like now. Shelf your agenda, sometimes I actually have to close my eyes in order to do it at first. This actionable advice is both smaller and greater than the way we tend to think about this interpersonal skill. It's smaller in the sense that you can just do this in two minutes or less.

What is your habitual orientation towards other people? When you encounter people, customers, employees, your spouse, children, an unhelpful person in customer service, what is your inclination? Is it to be heard by them? Is it to get by them? Is it to handle them as efficiently as possible so that you can get on with more important things, or is your first inclination to understand them? By the end of this episode, you'll be able to use one habit to change every aspect of your day, perhaps even your life.
