I suppose it would be good to make a short list of these for AIAF? <br /><br />I sometimes will (at least mentally, sometimes out loud) describe another as "my new best friend" if I want to place myself in a state where I can hear them. It is, I suppose, putting several of these biases to work in my favor. When dealing with someone who others find socially difficult, it has worked in my advantage. Sometimes I even actually end up with a new best friend, in addition to a very productive working relationship.<br /><br />Maybe there is something useful in learning to use or adopt biases on a temporary basis, semi-clinically, to boost your empathy and build a relationship.<br /><br /><br />Cheers.Agileotterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10773578598860454277noreply@blogger.com
