This Week in Charm – Jocko Willink | Tim Urban | Assumption

Thanks for checking in to find out what we’ve been up to this week at The Art of Charm — where the early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Minisode Monday #5 | Testing Our Assumptions

This week, whenever you catch yourself making assumptions about something or someone, put it to the test: is the guy at the deli with all the tattoos really a scary biker type? Is the movie theater ticket clerk really just an aloof teenager?

Did someone snub you on purpose, or are they maybe distracted with their own issues? Some of the programming that triggers these assumptions may need rewiring.

Here’s a good place to start.
