Description

In this episode, we talk all about the perception of reality. We live in a world where oftentimes we  tend to think our human actions are influenced by objective facts, data and circumstances. However, what is actually influencing our actions and reactions is our subjective assessments about of reality. The real access to impacting reality is through assessments, as we see through Paul’s real life example that she provides this week. Paul recalls a story where of a salesperson who let his assessment of reality himself impact the effectiveness of his work. As Kari and Paul dissect the nuances of this example, Kari notes that one of the biggest blind spots we have as humans is that we’re unaware that we’re inventing reality in each and every moment through our assessments. Kari stresses the importance of mastering our assessments, and not mitigating them. She urges the audience to ask set of questions to determine where the assessment is coming from whether to act on their assessments. By listening for and shaping assessments, we can start to understand and alter our reactions to how we and others respond to reality.
