being able to figure out what other people want is probably the most important skill that's rarely ever explicitly taught hell, figuring out what YOU want for yourself is a heckuva trip ~ s e n s i t i v i t y ~

Fun and illuminating bit about how young children are natural salespeople - until we teach them to get inside their own heads and get in their own way https://t.co/khEezK04Ct

Sales psychology is probably the most important thing that I don’t understand as well as I should / would like to. Like, we’re all selling, one way or another. And the only way to bust out of stale patterns, in a sense, is to sell better 🤔

I don’t think it’s common for every child to be this naturally photogenic and stylish- but I do think that many children know who they are in a preconscious way, and then have to spend ~2 decades or more unlearning the conditioning that clouds it from them https://t.co/bKuwuBjOGw
