“We are more likely to misunderstand people who are different from us. That’s why we are tempted to label them as “difficult.” In doing so, we place them in a different category and are even less likely to appreciate their behavior. Before you know it, you are pulled into the cycle of assumptions and blame.”

“Try to see the world from the other person’s perspective, even if you know you’re right. Your willingness to listen results in learning opportunities and increases the chance that you will successfully influence the other person.”

“Having a good understanding of other people’s algorithms (their beliefs and needs) helps to predict their behavior. This gives you the opportunity to make interactions easier, more productive, and more fun.”

“You can see your brain as a set of algorithms. All situational variables are taken as input and processed into an output. In other words, our algorithms analyze a situation and tell us what to do.”

“You become powerful when you can tap into both your rational brain and your emotional brain. The rider and the elephant need to work in harmony. And that’s where emotional intelligence comes into play.”

“Even as a rational person, your emotions are crucial for the decisions you make in your life. Learn how to recognize your own and other people’s emotions and use them to your advantage.”

“Algorithms are formed through our experiences in the world. We embed a belief about the optimal output given different types of input. In other words, we learn how we should behave in different types of situations.”

“Next to our harmful algorithms, everyone has built a set of beneficial algorithms. Most people aren’t aware of all their beneficial algorithms, because the behavior feels automatic and ordinary. Becoming aware of those positive triggers helps to maximize their impact.”
