BE PROACTIVE
BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND
• It is based on the principle that all things are created twice. There is a
mental (first) creation, and a physical (second) creation.
• “ You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards.
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” - Steve Jobs
PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST
SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND, THEN
TO BE UNDERSTOOD
• "Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to
reply."
THINK WIN-WIN
• Non-zero sum games
• Games without losers
• Abundance mentality
• When you’re buying a house, you’re looking to get the lowest price possible. When
you’re selling a house, you try to sell it for as much as possible. With these conflicting
motives, no wonder real estate deals fall through as much as they do. So how can this
be solved? By approaching a real estate transaction with a “win-win”attitude in mind.

Editor's Notes

  1. I feel like I am the most inexperience, teaching something to experienced people. Audience = woofer, I'm the hamster. So who knows what will happen in this lecture
  2. Our lives are formed by habits, 40-50% of our time are spent on auto pilot. Keystone habits. E .g. exercise. What are some examples of good habits? So, today, we are learning what good habits are from masters.
  3. Bestseller Have known for a long time, but no time to read it My friend read it in high school
  4. Response-ability Proactive,  reactive
  5. Role model Multiple role models Want to be everything? Contradiction: “ You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.” ― Steve Jobs
  6. See things through the lens of others,seek to understand. 
  7. Game theory Prisoner's dilemma Police tells you that if you rat our your friend,you will get free or a lighter sentence. The other guy is a jerk, it changes the equation....not covered in this slides Ask what audience will pick Nash equilibrium – both will defect
