@x4ntylol @LSXYZ9 Brother, I watched the first 10 minutes and LS is incredibly bad faith and acoustic about this. His absurd "CONTEXTUALIZE IT - GIVE ME DATA" is so fcking cringe its unreal

the problem with enterprise sales is it is very, very hard to teach

sales training only makes you worst at it, too

if take sales advice too hard, you become walking commodity (sales bro)

if take sales advice too little, you waste too much time or never create urgency (ineffective)

it’s having a casual, unscripted conversation with focused guardrails to identify areas of motivation, momentum, excitement — and, admitting if it’s too far off from what you can actually do

sometimes it’s right there, other times you need to connect more of the dots if it’s closely adjacent

it’s a lot of improv, esp because it’s unscripted

and, more importantly

most of the work goes into working alongside your internal peer (likely turns to friendship) to craft the 20% to their situation

this means you need to also understand good deal craft & corporate incentives

that 20% never looks the same; always different

@LolMalice He basically checks at a time when he can return to lane w/o losing exp. If he sticks around, he'll lose exp. Even if he stays, you're not guaranteed to kill (no exhaust). Plus, vs Urgot he may be zoned from EXP if he's not there in time and misses melee xp

Yes.

Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking.

Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.

former CRO of Snowflake was recently on a podcast and mentioned

the #1 shared attribute of top performing reps was being largely skeptical and almost untrustworthy of other people

clear lesson in there

One of the things that I don't see talked about a lot in 'classical' learning research is this idea that giving clear, unambiguous feedback is great for learning in structured environments (e.g. exams!) ... but it can actually DEGRADE your ability to learn from life.

@MarcoBuschmann @fdp Ist es nicht etwas lustig, dass Sie die bekannteren Unternehmer mit dem jeweiligen Unternehmen abbilden, aber die allermeisten nur "Unternehmer" sind?
