Tip of the Month: DIY Self-Fulfilling Prophecies
I found that I can beg for sushi from this guy more effectively by creating a self-fulfilling prophecy instead of asking.
Instead of:
Please can you give me some sushi? Please?!!!
Try:
I won’t ask you for sushi because I know you’ll give one to me anyway. I do, after all, write the Word of the Day…
They feel more obliged to fulfill the prophecy.
