Treat Conversations as Experiments

✨Key takeaways:

Treat initial conversations as experiments to establish communication rules.
Don't view conversational missteps as failures, but as learning opportunities.

Treat the beginning of conversations as experiments, where you test different communication styles. Example: Trying a casual approach and observing the other person's reaction, like interrupting to see if they object. These experiments help establish the "rules" of your interaction. Even if an experiment goes wrong, it's not a failure; it provides valuable data about the other person's communication preferences. This allows you to adapt and ensures smoother communication moving forward.
