I was asked “Are there specific steps we should take or any tips that could give us an unfair advantage?” the other day for an interview - apparently I answered this - which I’m quite proud of past Tash for coming up with 😹

Doodling out the curse of knowledge - and Woodstock and the teachers in snoopy kept coming into my head.. sprinkled a little covey quote on this as I love the “seek first to understand, then to be understood” chapter.

You may have done the salary dance, it’s not fair and it’s not def not something that would get a 10 out of 10 on strictly.

I found out…repeatedly different moves you could pull-like negotiating?! It never occurred to me-however it did to several peers who came in way over me in💰for same role

“Different listeners - listen differently” simple but very true Beth Rafulski ‘autistic autism researcher’ stated this, it joined some dots in my mind

Different listeners, listen differently
Active Listening is usually followed by ‘top tips’ and ‘eye contact’ is usually top of that list*.

I met the mother of all ‘Norman doors’ last night, I head butted it 3 time?!?!
The first time I was running from the toilet and almost knocked myself out 😂 it had all the normal passive aggressive ‘PULL!!!’ Signs.. still did it- honestly I love them, and find them fascinating

The crab effect, comes from the behavior of crabs in a bucket, (I’d like to say they should not be in the bucket-but il stay on track) so where a single crab could escape the crab effect is that they pile on, pull others back, resulting in the entire crabby bucket clans demise….

We don’t see the world as it is, we see it as we are
Anaïs Nin

Our perception of the world is shaped by our experiences, beliefs & biases. Wrapped in a layer of fleshy human emotions Rather than an objective reality

Not everyone sees or experiences the world through our lens.

I’m usually good for putting alt text on drawings but on here I’m not- on twitter there was a great bit reminder you could follow and it commented underneath if you didn’t add alt text… anyone seen something on here like that?
