I’ve come to appreciate over time that social skill and relational skill are different things. It’s common in my industry to find people who are socially strong but relationally weaker. You will also find less commonly people who are relationally strong but socially weaker.
Social competence seems to index more on speaking skills and comfort with group dynamics, but relational competence indexes more on asking good questions, listening, empathy, and depth coupled with comfort with one-on-one interactions. They can be quite different skill sets.
The most common misperception I see in this industry is people who are socially strong and relationally weaker conflating the two and not realizing their own relational weakness.
On the flip side, people who are relationally strong but socially weaker often don’t fully appreciate their own relational strength because social skill can be a more viscerally observable and valued trait.
@hubermanlab@YouTube I know it’s easy to get into the weeds. But the podcasts I’ve listened to recently, go into such depth, you answered questions I didn’t know I had.
Big thanks for all you do 🫡
@hubermanlab@YouTube Curious if you know any studies involving lazy eyes or inter-eye deficits.
Ideally in reference to exercises mentioned (smooth pursuit, near/far, etc).
Additionally Q topic: Using glasses.
#4 @tferriss with @BoydVarty: A Lion Tracker’s Guide to Life (2hr 32min listen). This is probably one of my favourite podcasts ever. Varty’s adventures in the wilderness of Africa make him a unique mix of hilarious storyteller & a source of profound wisdom https://t.co/n2GSxvOYcO
@Codaleks@michaeljburry Tbf this is where I see crypto/NFTs/blockchain has potential to grow a small creator economy. Too early to tell how things will play out though. Too many unknowns currently.
Having zero recreational time in school helps me appreciate the escapism of film.
I’m 15 minutes into the new stranger things season and I’m so happy to be with these characters again.
Rest In Peace to those that escaped this world. Power to those that will persevere through the insurmountable trauma. Strength to those who lost the light of their lives.
