I can teach you how to control People
Doesn't work all the time. Works best after about 1PM...and on about 50-75% of people.
Break-break...
I'm a 'hi!'-er. When I pass people I almost always look at them and say 'Hiya!'...or offer the greeting of the day.
Now - I don't say the greeting of the day per se...I almost always say, enthusiastically "MORNIN'!!!" knowing FULL well it's well after 1pm. By saying 'morning' to them I FORCE them to say...one of the following..
"Morn-you mean Good Afternoon!!"
"G'Mornin'?? It's not morning! It's afternoon! Yuk-yuka"
To either of those I repspond with "eh? Semantics..."
it's neat. Try it.
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
