Reply To: Exercise 3: Listen to Examples
Listenig to episodes
While in the later episodes it was almost possible to predict “soon he’s gonna ask” as Josh prepaired the stage, in the earlier episodes (when Peter and the Wolf were still around), it was sometimes like a “foot in the door” or a clumsy brute force approach, seeming not elegant or smoooth/fitting into the conversation.
There also was a difference that some guests knew what is coming.
A reaccurring pattern was talking abot how it went for otheres and that it became an invitation, up for the guest to decide if they want to.
it also changed from “doing something for the environment” to “doing something that will evoke these feelings”, which seemed a lot more inviting and guests repeatadly stated that they like the no-pressure/not being tld what to do approach.
As Josh also often mentions, the easy committement for one thing, often leads to other things (from “recycling” to “avoiding waste/packaging altogether”.
In a way I am excited assiting others and nudging them, at the same time it feels strange to take this role without being asked/invited to do so, as many people might still think that i want them to do something. And of course they are partly right about this, even though from my side it’s more of a hope, and motivated by me being motivated by their benefit.
I will need to figure ot how to be ok with doing this.
