Elaborating here with following thoughts.
The approach I try to apply for "socializing" which I really unsure about - and perhaps that unsureness is exactly the point - is be a little like
some machine learning algorithm. When "training set" is scarce and confidence is absolute zero, it still makes a "guess" to train.
Another metaphore is playing an insturment. When you play an insturment you don't want to stop and think.
Perhaps "socializing" has a unique and varying tempo to it, something between "skimming quickly over a quicksand" and "manueuvering carefully in a minefield".
The only key I have to operate is to think that if I make an unwanted impression I can always make up with another impression.
- darkerside 8y agoDo you ever get scared you could get "too good" at socializing? To the point of manipulation?
- anoplus 8y agoI think if you get to influence people by your charisma, you may fear of misleading them into a bad route and feel responsible. I personally rarely feel this one.
