I felt like I couldn't connect with people.
I felt like I didn't have friends.
Or my first job, they made me a manager and I completely screwed up.
The reason they become a super communicator consistently is because they've just thought a little bit harder about it.
Usually because they have to.
Usually because they screwed up and they're like, I don't want to screw up again.
And it's just thinking a little bit more about how communication works that allows us to really connect with other people.
Yeah.
So this is one of the big insights.
And then I want to get back to questions because I think it's really important.
One of the big insights from the last decade is that we tend to think of a discussion as being about one thing, right?
We're talking about my book or we're talking about, you know, whether we should send the kids to this school or that school or where we should go on vacation.
But if you look at the conversation that happens, the discussion, what you'll see is that there are multiple different kinds of conversations in that same discussion and dialogue.
And most of them fall into one of three buckets.
there's usually a practical conversation, which is a conversation where we're trying to figure out actually what we want to talk about and how to talk about it.
But also maybe we want to like fix a problem or make a plan.
It's practical.
It's using the frontal cortex of our brain.
There's a second kind of conversation, which is an emotional conversation.
And if I come into you and I'm telling you about where I am emotionally and you suggest a solution to me, I'm going to be like, people don't like that.
