But before we do it, we simply say, declare our priorities. She might say, going to Italian food, that's an eight on a scale of one to 10. And for me, Mexican food's a four. There's no negotiation. There's no conflict. What happens is I might assume, well, her desire is the same as my desire, and I'm going to really push.

Think about the person's prioritization. How are you approaching it in terms of your mindset, your metaphor? And then ultimately listening, you're going to negotiate better.

And now all of a sudden, because I'm pushing, her desire rises because, hey, nobody likes to be threatened. So figure out priorities as best you can because you might not even need to negotiate. The third bit of advice is to think about the approach and metaphor that you're bringing to the situation.

When you're networking, just like when you're interviewing, first and foremost, you should be thinking about who are the people that are in the space or in the room or on the Zoom that you're connecting with. So do some research, reconnaissance and reflection about who the people are that you might be speaking to, because that will help you focus your content.

And she says, mind your metaphors. A lot of us, when we approach negotiation, see it as a battle, see it as a fight. And when you see it that way, that changes your whole demeanor, how you approach it, the words you use. But if you see it as... a dance or as a conversation, that changes it as well, or a problem to be solved. So think about how are you approaching it.
