You can try soliciting people's relative weighting of items on the PERMA model to learn lots more about them.
Large fluctuations in a person’s interpersonal behavior across situations and over time are thought to be associated with poor personal and interpersonal outcomes.
as a new, yet undoctrinated researcher, I feel it is my duty to further investigate my leturers recent comments that suggest there are publishing biases against plainly reported the results of her tobacco research when they go against the mainstream opinion.
I tried to publish a joke nomination for a university leadership position with a meme, but the emoticons didn't print properly so now it looks odd
Some of my room mate's wisdom:
Life is not a linear journey. You may be going around in circles. Don't try to reach a destination
Videos are higher fidelity more persuasive than text 2 . Universities are a control mechanism
For both partners, empathy and kindness were the most consistent predictors of relationship satisfaction...For couples in which the male partner has a neurotic personality, the non-neurotic female must avoid criticism, convey empathy and resist becoming emotionally floode
She doesn't think I'm long term material but that's just an assumption. All her previous assumptions about good relationship material, her institutions, have been wrong! Can't wait to tell her this!

RSd's 'power of extreme purpose' motivational video I love the music!
I find meaning in my relationships. I don't know if I 'meaning' elsewhere. How about you?
I suffer from grandiosity..any tips to overcome it other than CBT?
I find that biological/scientific plausibility of a thing at a lower level of abstraction makes people believe something is more likely...disproportionate to anything else. I think this is a failure in appropriate reductionism and hypothesis generation.
Another narcissist symptom is a lack of empathy. They are unable to relate, understand, and rationalize the feelings of others. Instead of behaving in a way that shows how they are feeling in the moment, they behave in the way that they feel they are expected to behave or that gives them the most attention\

What could they mean by 'rationalize' here?

Today I pitched my research to a classroom with the other people in the class. We had to convince a hypothetical Bill Gates to give us money for our funding. I tried to structure my pitch around scale, neglectfulness and tractability, but I felt less compelling than others who pitched around regularly persuasive devices
Steve and Hilary must persuade Rochelle the French bureaucrat to expedite their visa process. Both Steve and Hilary note that Rochelle is wearing delightful chartreuse earrings. Steve, the persuasion novice, runs the mental process of noting that Rochelle is a person, and that people generally respond well to friendliness. Hilary, the persuasion expert, notes that Rochelle's chartreuse earrings are the only flamboyant clothing items that anyone in the office is wearing. Based on a large sample size of processed experience now stored in her system one, she guesses that the chartreuse earrings could signify that Rochelle wants to distinguish herself from her fellow bureaucrats - to show that she is not just another bureaucrat. Based on this, Hilary makes a gamble to say things which shows that she appreciates Rochelle's uniqueness - e.g., "You're the friendliest-looking embassy employee I've ever met!" Who do you think has the better marker of expertise? Why?
You're on the aisle seat on a tram. Should you move over, and promote/normalise a permissive culture, or stay in place to promote a permission-seeking culture?
I find that four hours of happy personality (I call him Aaron) in row flips me from my unhappy personality (I call him Carlos), to my serious/rage/serenity personality (I call him Eric). This should make more sense once I give a backstory to my multiple personalities. I'm still trying to figure it out myself. I feel the high expectations of a family friends family (the 'c' family) helped destabilize my self esteem, then it all went downhill from there. I just want to live the simple life of a barrista!
No rhythm assisted poetry (rap) this week. Chris brown - sex wins the award for best dirty talk. And, Andrew Do's music.
Interpreting Linkin Park's Numb and other 'that generation' LP songs as if it is self-referential ('you' relates to yourself, as well as 'me' relating to yourself) it takes on a whole new flavour. Same with 'Hell of a night' by Schoolboy Q. In contrast: anything by Lil b. Not really insightful, but check out the: 'Feeling Good (Instrumental Cover) Muse Album: cover by night86pl' on youtube.
I thought up a joke:

Q) What's the difference between a sociopath and psychopath?

A) A sociopath takes a moment to explain the difference

I did a huge write-up about evidence based relationships that somehow dissapeared. I'm so dissapointed!
I had a dream about my psychologist last night...she was telling me off and stuff..and looked differnet I was hanging at some kind of hide out house that was run by a secret student club .... and the night before I had a dream about something called 'mr. hippo'...and a few days before I dreamed I had x with my mom haha, She says I can't take care of her cause I don't do much housework therefore I'm not a good long term partner which she says she wants.
Kimspirations. This is some of the funniest stuff I've seen in months. Lots of repeat viewing value.
