I don't know how that thing came together.

But in it, I taught you how to never forget someone's name after meeting them within two seconds, because it's very embarrassing.

And so I have a little thing where I've switched up the instructions on a shampoo bottle, which are normally what?

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Lather, rinse, repeat.

Three words, every shampoo bottle.

Here's what I say.

Listen, repeat, reply.

So when you meet someone, most people, when they hear a name, they actually...

didn't forget the name, they actually never knew it in the first place, which sounds so silly.

But when they say the name, you weren't listening because your brain is going through a stressful period at that moment.

Do I already know them?

What's going on?

You're thinking of a million things, especially if you're meeting people.

There's all different things going on in your brain.

So when they said the name, you didn't actually hear it.

You don't know it.

If you ask them right then, you don't know the name.

So right away, the easiest part, listen.

Sounds silly.
