Why And How To Cultivate Unexpected Allies

Those who don’t act right (like you) can actually be your most mutually beneficial allies. Here’s how: Some people believe we each have a set point in our temperament, along the continuum of pessimistic to optimistic, meaning we habitually behave at that point on the continuum. Psychology professor Martin Seligman believes that those who operate at the positive end of that range are more likely to thrive, have friends, and advance in their work.

How to Become More Credible And Visible

“The smaller the coffin, the heavier it is to carry,” Pakistani Defense Minister Khawaja Asif told CNN host Christiane Amanpour. Then he went on to describe a Taliban massacre where many children were killed. As if didn’t try to evoke an emotion with grand generalizations. Instead he generated deep caring and curiosity via his specificity. You, too, can gain immense power by starting with a relevant, specific detail. Get listeners to picture and feel first so they can’t help but think about it. That’s probably why this opening statement pulled others into wanting to learn more.

How to See A Best Path Forward By Understanding Serendipity

We seek meaning in most any action, so we sometimes mislead ourselves. Even when shown circles, triangles and other geometric objects randomly moving about on a screen, we tend to give them human attributes. We instinctively determine what their behavior means. Such quick conclusions were sometimes lifesaving to our ancient ancestors. “It was safer to mistake a twig for a snake than vice versa,” suggest psychologists Fritz Heider and Marianne Simmel. Our primitive brain still controls much of our perceptions, yet analytics may alter that instinct.

Decision Making Traps We All Fall Into Sometimes

The Confirming-Evidence Trap This trap is the bias that leads us to seek out information to support our existing point of view while avoiding information that contradicts it. This bias not only affects where we go to collect evidence to reinforce a current stance or perspective, but also how we interpret the evidence we receive, leading us to give too much weight to supporting information and opinions and too little to those that are conflicting. In one study of this phenomenon, two groups one opposed to and one supporting capital punishment each read two reports of carefullyr

5 Steps For Making Happiness a Habit

The second part of this story is a clincher for considering that happiness can be a choice. An elementary school teacher in rural Arkansas made a bracelet of charms of each student in her class so she could continually remind herself of how she cared about each one, and her passion for teaching them. She wakes up each morning with the painful fatigue that most face when they have the chronic, erratic and incurable disease called multiple sclerosis.

Create Productive Enthusiasm In Yourself And With Others

Enthusiasm is not the same as just being excited. One gets excited about going on a roller coaster. One becomes enthusiastic about creating and building a roller coaster,“ suggests Bo Bennett, and I heartily agree. Getting enthusiastic is a little like learning to breathe. Nobody can tell you exactly how to do it, but without it you’re in big trouble. No one but you can discover the compelling purpose or exciting goal that ignites enthusiasm inside you. Discover your strongest passion (and talent) by noticing the situations in which you are both:r

How To Pull Others Into Your Stories and Boost In Bragging Rights

With a warm smile on his face an elderly gentleman came up to speak to me after hearing my keynote on Ways to Live a More Meaningful Life and asked if he could tell me about an experience he’d had the previous week that made him decide not to retire for awhile after all. He told me he’d been a professional Bagpipe player for over 30 years. He performs at gatherings as varied as weddings, concerts and resorts at sunset. What he then told me has stuck in my mind for over a decade and makes me feel good every time I share it with others, so I often do.

How What Captures Your Attention May Control Your Life

Several years ago, DisneyWorld executives were wondering what most captured the attention of toddlers and infants at their theme park and hotels in Orlando, Florida. So they hired me and a cultural anthropologist to observe them as they passed by all the costumed cast members, animated creatures, twirling rides, sweet-smelling snacks, and colorful toys. But after a couple of hours of close observation, we realized that what most captured the young children’s attention wasn’t Disney-conjured magic. Instead it was their parents’ cell phones, especially when the parents were using them.r

Ways To Become More Quotable

As someone who grew up cited as “phoebically shy and a stutterer I shocked most of my high school colleague when I was invited to speak, five years later at their annual state conference, coming back as some one who’d become a Wall Street journal journalist. In fact, when I walked in to give my speech, many who knew me in the audience looked started then laughed at me. My core message in my talk and life was-- and is -- the enormous benefits of having attracted extremely diverse allies with different talents, experience and temperaments.

Become More Frequently Quoted

Despite the millions already spent on one of the highest stakes campaigns now under way, what has either presidential candidate said that you remember? That’s what I thought. Darn little, if anything. How about you? Do people stop listening before you stop talking? Being quotable is essential to attracting more options into your life. Without it you may be rich, smart, hardworking, and even attractive and good hearted yet you are likely to lose to the person who paints a more compelling picture.

Four Ways to Attract More Sales

Marshall wasn’t aware that we were closely watching him as he strode into the pool table showroom, but he was the ninth unwitting participant in our experiment. He glanced at the sign on the wall directly ahead of him as he entered the store: “Our Three Most Popular Models” the sign hung above a full color image of an ornately carved, antique pool table, flanked closely on either side by two other images: a bare-bones model and a lean, modern pool table. Frankly it would have been hard to avoid this scene.

An uplifting story that illustrates benefits of connective, positive behaviors

When I was a Wall Street Journal journalist, I was sent to cover a football game in Barcelona. Later during the game in the stadium I was startled to see many spectators in the stadium yelling racist insults down at the renowned Brazilian footballer, the flying fullback Dani Alves. Capping it off, an angry spectator who had been screaming racial epithets at him threw a banana down in front of Alves as he was walking back onto the field to play again.r
