You probably know that Jedi use the Force to safeguard peace and justice in a galaxy far, far away.
What you may not know is there’s a powerful Jedi Mind Trick you can use to elevate your work and life right here in THIS GALAXY.??
A REAL-LIFE JEDI MIND TRICK?!?
Yep, it's true, all of it. Here’s how it works…
Anytime you’re in a social situation (aka a situation involving other people) and you want to be influential (NOT manipulative) like a Jedi Master, what do you talk about first?
The weather? Nope.?
Yourself? Nope.
The Real Housewives of Kansas City? Nope.
You talk about THEM. You get curious about THEM.
And THEM is the one (the employer, the customer, the client, the organization, etc.) in front of you.???♀?
If it sounds simple, it is.?

FAMINE
People are starving. We’re starving for acknowledgment. We’re starving for recognition. We’re starving to be seen, heard, and understood.?
Most people mostly think about themselves most of the time. The result: a famine of?acknowledgement and a pandemic of loneliness.
Whenever somebody joins us in our first-person world – even if just for a moment - by talking, asking questions, recognizing, acknowledging, or empathizing with us, it gets our attention because it is SO FRACKING RARE.
DON’T HUSTLE?TED LASSO
Want Jedi power? Acknowledge, recognize, honor, credit, salute, appreciate them more.
For the Jedi magic to work, focusing on them can’t just be surface level, the inquiry into THEM must be specific, genuine, shared.
GET CURIOUS ABOUT THEM, SON!
