Warren, when I read the comment you wrote in the context of all the other "serious" comments, I laughed out loud and felt happy 😂. It fulfilled my need to not take everything so seriously. Thank you!
These videos are invaluable in their content of how to express ourselves in an authentic way, I feel relieved and emboldened from listening and participating in these chats, these videos enrichen my life by meeting my need to connect in authentic ways to others I appreciate these talks dearly thank you for sharing these teachings
Specificity is extremely useful, he is right about that. But we can't always precisely identify these things. Can you identify specific behaviors that explain why you trust someone? Find someone funny? Admire someone? Love someone? Relatively vague compliments are not inherently manipulative - it's communication. If you're partnered with someone, a compliment can be a way to communicate you like an appreciate a sort of behavior. Your partner (and yourself) need this information; you both want to make life better for your partner. The feeling is the most important thing, the fact that you've communicated gratitude is more important than being rigorous and precise in defining why and for what you are grateful. If there is enough trust between the two parties to believe and know that this isn't a manipulative tactic, then it is still valuable to say, at the right time, "you're so talented/beautiful/kind".
Beautifully put together, while reading this comment I am relieved to hear a way of translating these sorts of conversations into what hasnt been expanded on, like the part where you described how having your friend describe what she was happy about, it really meets my need of innerstanding the complex simplicity ofowhile giraffe l nguage while having it done in a reciporacal way that allows all emotions ro be heard. I love hearing empathy being practised like this, it encouraging. I really appreciate it, like a mini lesson in a lesson. Thanks for the blessings
I disagree with some of this. I don't think the concept of evaluation of skill or quality is bad. Nor being humble. But I like all of the stuff about the power we have to make people's lives better, and I really like the giraffe compliment. Favorite quotes: "I think there's zero information value in being told what you are. And great danger you might believe it" "It's just as dangerous to believe that you're smart as that you're stupid"
You see Mister Rosenberg, the puppets is the reason I listened to you until the end, but it is also the reason I immediately lost any respect for your message. Did I do it right?
This man is clearly a Vulcan

1. Concrete examples of what was done to make someone's life wonderful

Ironic
I like what he says --except that I really dislike using the word "violence" for anything other than attacks intended to do physical harm.

I am curious on what led to your disrespect
yes you did; and as you know, your judgment about what to respect is entirely about you and not about the harm you intended to do to his work.
