How to use negatives better

Three important ideas for using negatives better:

1) Uncover the benefits of starting with what you don’t want

2) You need to match other people (with a negative) before you can get them to shift to a positive

3) The brain naturally weighs loss more than gain; it takes an effort to focus on the positive (when you start with a negative, you can lend someone some of your willpower so they can make a shift)

How Real is Zoom Fatigue?

According to researchers at Stanford, Zoom fatigue is real. But does that mean it’s inevitable? Linda Ferguson offers an NLP (neurolinguistic programming) perspective on using your senses to engage in video chats and meetings. Linda references this TED talk on doodling and Adam Grant’s recent podcast episode with Malcolm Gladwell.

Doing the best you can when you are not at your best

You might not feel like your best self today. You might not even be a 7/10. Maybe you’re a three. It’s okay. You can work with that. You have to start where you are to make a difference.

Agree More to Collaborate and Innovate in UncertainTimes

Less than 10 minutes to think differently about how to agree instead of disagreeing so that you let difference into your thinking. These are the skills that connect us and let us keep moving in uncertain times.

Take a few minutes to gain a better perspective

The problem with stress is that it closes up your focus so all you can see is the thing that is hard. It’s difficult to access your best strengths or your best perspective from within tunnel vision. Use this exercise to open up better choices.

Breathe to Connect

This is a short exercise we have been doing at NLP Canada Training to improve our connection when we are on phone or video calls or meetings. It was inspired by Patsy Rodenberg’s work in The Second Circle. Try this one before your next web meeting and feel a more direct, human connection with the people on the other side of the screen.
