Hosted by Laura Cathcart Robbins, a writer and a recovery thriver and survivor, Laura found herself in an all too familiar position. In September 2018, she was the only black woman in the room at Brave Magic, a famed writer’s retreat. After it was over, she wrote about her “only one” experience in The Huffington Post and comments started flooding into her DM. These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

Ep43 – How to Never Argue Again (Unless You Want To) and a Free Gift Announcement
Manage episode 306914421 series 2854361
Content provided by Mentallyunscripted. All podcast content including episodes, graphics, and podcast descriptions are uploaded and provided directly by Mentallyunscripted or their podcast platform partner. If you believe someone is using your copyrighted work without your permission, you can follow the process outlined here https://player.fm/legal.
Our intention at Mentally Unscripted is to bring you better tools to improve your engagement with others. It’s not an easy task in 2021, where Tribalism and media-driven polarization make having productive conversations even harder.
That’s why we’ve put together How to Never Argue Again (Unless You Want To), a free guide to help you have better conversations that don’t end with hurt feelings and lost relationships. To get it, go to Mentally Unscripted and sign up for our email list.
Resources
* How to Stop Fearing the Decentralized Tomorrow (crossover with Mental Supermodels)
* How Confirmation Bias and COVID Divided the World
* A Conversation with George Silverman (MindSkills Creator)
* Go Meta or Go Home (George Silverman Medium article)
* The Mentally Unscripted Origin Story: Why Paul lacks a soul and Scott hates the man
Mental Models
* False Consensus Effect: Our tendency to overestimate how much others share our opinions.
Top Takeaways
* Having a passion for something is good, but we can’t let it push us into having angry arguments.
* Good arguments are reasoned discussions that help you share and learn new ideas. They don’t start with a conclusion then seek out facts. They seek out facts then make a judgment.
* We all have blind spots (confirmation bias). By being aware of them, we can improve our discourse.
* Go meta to help manage discussions and improve them.
Engage with Scott and Paul on the Twitter thought control machine.
We’re also on Odysee (full episodes and clips).
Follow Scott at Strength and Reason and on DESO.
How to have thrilling conversations on blistering hot topics without fighting…
It’s easier than you think.
Download How to Never Argue Again (Unless you Want To) at Mentally Unscripted and discover the secret “Go Meta” approach that makes any topic fair game.
It’s totally free (for now) and worth hundreds in therapy.
Cheers!
