Hey, how come he did that? It’s insane! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ
Why would anyone in their right mind think that that’s acceptable?!
I would NEVER do/say/think that at all! ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ
Is he from another planet or something? ๐Ÿ‘ฝ

When someone behaves in a way that seems crazy to you, it may be useful to the question “Why?”

๐Ÿฉ Why did that person do/say/think in ways that is different to me? ๐Ÿค”
๐Ÿฉ How might their upbringing influence the way they view the world?
๐Ÿฉ What could have happened in the past that has created this emotional trigger
๐Ÿฉ What is it about my world view that has made me question their behaviour?
๐Ÿฉ How am I different to this person?
๐Ÿฉ What are their values? And why are mine different? ๐Ÿ™Š
๐Ÿฉ How can I find out more about why they see things differently than me?
๐Ÿฉ They’ve been brought up in a way that has different values to mine, how does that make me feel? Can I disagree with that but still accept them as they are? ๐Ÿ˜•
๐Ÿฉ How might people with a different mental model view this situation, and what might their reaction be?
๐Ÿฉ Who is ‘right’ in this situation, or perhaps the better question might be ‘whose perspective/behaviour is the one I should be introspecting about, and deciding whether it’s the one I should adopt’? ๐Ÿคจ

The depth and breadth of the human experience is vast and there are no two souls who will experience life in exactly the same way.

When I come across human behaviour that jars my usual pattern of thinking, I will stop and ask those questions.

This part #EmotionalIntelligence is a crucial skill for #SalesforceConsultants especially during the Discovery phase.

It’s also applicable in other areas of life.
In fact, these are the lessons that I am teaching my children, in the hope that they will be able to nurture #empathy and become kind, compassionate adults. ๐Ÿ’š

The world needs more people who can

#BeCurious
#BeNonJudgemental
#BeKind

What do you do when you see someone doing/saying something that surprises you?

Today’s message was brought to you by the letter ‘B’.
As in #BeAStudentOfHumanNature.
Ok, that was a bit contrived, but you get the message ๐Ÿ˜
