#77 - The most important social skill EP2

There are four mistakes that almost everyone does in conversations. They are easy to avoid but most people are not even aware of them. You are most likely doing them as well - and they will lower your chances of happy relationships and successful careers. Today we are diving into how to develop the most important social skill by avoiding these mistakes. Today's episode has been split up in four topics: 1. How do you stop making these mistakes? 2. What are the two most important mistakes to avoid? 3. Why giving advice at the wrong time is a huge mistake? 4. How do you stop making these mistakes? -- Today's episode is a personal development episode, where Erik Bergman and Emil Ekvardt explore topics about how to grow as a person. We are both personal development junkies and spend many hours every week sharing our ideas and reading about new things. This episode is great for you who want to learn about our latest perspective. We share lots of personal stories, talk about how it applies in our lives, and where we have learned it from. -- 1. We start by looking into how Erik was called "The radio" when he was a teenager and why he was talking so much. What were then underlying factors that made him be a person that always had something to say. We are also looking into what it feels like to be around someone that talks a lot and shows how it will impact your life if you are a person who does. 2. In the second topic, we look into a painful memory from Erik's childhood and how he early on learned that he was doing social mistakes without fully understanding what they were. The look at the two most important mistakes to avoid, mistakes that we both have done over and over again in our lives and that we are now working on fixing. 3. In the third section we end up in a painful situation were we look into how Emil dealt with Erik's sadness when he had broken up with his girlfriend three years ago. Emil did some big mistakes that he wished that he would have avoided and we are looking at what he could have done instead. 4. In the fourth part, we talk about where do you start? What are the steps to take after this episode to make sure that you will quickly become a better listener, develop the most important social skill, and be more popular in social situations? -- Social media channels: http://linktr.ee/smilingerik http://linktr.ee/emil.e
