I order a decaf latte and an egg mayo sandwich. It is interesting that the brown bread is still "frozen" so she only has white bread available. That says a lot about how we treat food here.

I visit a Coffee Shop and Make an Order

Bilmem ki hâtıralar,
Ne istersiniz benden,
Gelir gelmez sonbahar?

Bu kanad çırpış neden?
Cama vuracak ne var
Ey eski hâtıralar

Sanmayın güller açar,
Bülbül değildir öten;
Bu rüzgâr başka rüzgâr.

Ne istersiniz benden,
Bilmem ki hâtıralar,
Gelir gelmez sonbahar?

Who is that man in the meeting?

We know we should appreciate people more often but do we know how to acknowledge them and why is it even so important? 

In a conversation when you acknowledge people, they feel heard and valued. They become more open-minded even if you are opposing their beliefs. It’s because, through your acknowledgment of their ideas, they know that you have been listening and you understand where they are coming from. If you want to do business with people or maintain a good relationship with them, without learning how to acknowledge people, you will get nowhere.

Acknowledging is easy.

Just paraphrase what they said and follow up with a relevant question or your opinion. Paraphrasing proves that you understand them since you express their ideas using your own words. 

During negotiations or discussions even if you disagree with people, you can make them hear you out by disagreeing politely or by partially disagreeing with them. A strong disagreement shows that you are unwilling to talk. This makes the negotiation take a negative turn and go downhill. 

So, disagree politely and follow up with relevant questions to show that you are interested in learning more about them. 

What you do is often reciprocated. When you listen, they listen. When you show interest in people, they will show interest in you. When you acknowledge them, they will acknowledge your work, ideas, and suggestions.

Acknowledge people. Have more discussions and not arguments.

A podcast tracing the history of Liquid Paper, a product that was once found in almost every office in the world. Although it was made obsolete by the rise of the word processor, its invention and rise to fame is still a remarkable and inspiring story.

Un tour privado de 9 días, 5 provincias, 1882 Km, 24 lugares, pueblos y ciudades pero sobre todo, un viaje que deja la sensación de realmente visitar España y no “Spain”.
David y Marcia, dos personas de los EE.UU. muy curiosas por naturaleza y a lo que se añadía que era su primera visita a mi país, han sido dos compañeros de aventuras excelentes. Sí, me encanta resaltar lo de compañeros porque así ha sido, los tres diseñábamos los itinerarios (en base a mis sugerencias previas) y el “quorum” era siempre total. Durante las semanas previas a nuestro viaje estuvimos haciendo video-llamadas y tuvimos muchos correos comunicándonos para conocernos mejor y sobre todo, conocer sus curiosidades e intereses principales. Es decir, saber lo que sí y lo que no les gustaba.
