But what we don't often think about are the consequences and the costs of complying, because there's a lot of costs for continually complying with other people and putting aside your values. If you're always bowing your head to someone else, disregarding your values, it really has an effect on you.

Yeah. if we reflect on what happened in that situation, you in these particular incidents that happened, me with a CT scan, and then think about what factors enable our defiance and what makes it harder for us. Understanding that is really key. But anticipating, even when we think about all the

the big heroes that defied and had huge moments like Rosa Parks saying, no, I'm not going to move on the bus. There were lots of compliance moments before that moment. And so we shouldn't have so much shame. But that rumination is actually really helpful to think about what is it I wish I had done in that situation.

Because if we can then visualize it, if we can anticipate it, then that takes away the surprise, right? So the next time I was asked to go for some more radiation that I didn't need, I wasn't as surprised. I was anticipating it. I had practiced what I wish I would have said, and then I was able to say it.

Oh, yeah, absolutely. That anticipation is so key. There's this famous saying that's often attributed to Bruce Lee, but it's actually a Greek poet that said like under duress. We don't rise to the level of our expectations. We fall to our level of training. And so that training aspect is so key. And I didn't realize it, right? Because it does change those neural pathways. So anticipating.

And we can anticipate more than we actually think. Sometimes we're caught off. But I know because we've experienced situations before when at the workplace, a particular colleague is going to say something inappropriate or they're going to make a sexist remark. We can kind of predict things that might happen so we can start anticipating.

then we can visualize it and practice it. If you don't have like that behavioral training of actually practicing, if it's just the intellectual part, it's not going to make a difference. So you need to actually practice it. And this presentation workshop I went to, I just love the phrase that they use.

If you practice, your ears get used to hearing it and your mouth gets used to saying those words. That's really useful to know that that's what makes a difference.
