SYSK Choice: How Saying Less Gets You Mo...

About this episode

You have probably heard that it not a good idea to allow your dog to sleep on the bed. Despite what the experts say, I am going to begin this episode by telling you exactly why it is probably just fine. http://www.purewow.com/entry_detail/national/22018/7-Reasons-Its-Actually-Betterto-Let-Your-Dog-Sleep-in-Your.htm

 The world is full of people who over explain their ideas. To really be an effective communicator of ideas, the details can - and often do - get in the way. Brant Pinvidic is a producer who has sold more than three hundred TV shows and movies, run a TV network, and ran one of the largest production companies in the world with hit shows like The Biggest Loser and Bar Rescue. He is author of the book The 3 Minute Rule (https://amzn.to/36uNAHI) and he is here to explain how and why your ideas will always go over better with people when you are brief and to the point. 

 Of course, you are a good person. But no matter how good you are, you are probably a better person in the morning than you are after dinner. How can that be? Listen and I’ll tell you. https://www.medicaldaily.com/morning-morality-effect-you-are-more-likely-lie-steal-and-cheat-afternoon-261482

What if what your reality isn’t real reality? What if real, objective reality is something you can’t possibly perceive? And what if our inability to perceive objective reality has actually helped us to survive? I know it’s a bit hard to get your head around. That’s why Don Hoffman is here. Don is a professor at the University of California in Irvine and author of the book The Case Against Reality (https://amzn.to/2Nb2r2L). Listen as Don explains this theory which is more than just an academic exercise. There are some fascinating practical implications as well.
