Interesting article, I guess, because I don’t really agree with it? It seems overly analytical in a way that’s difficult to articulate.
In my experience I’ve seen parallels between personal and professional relationships but think it’s a bit short sighted to boil it down to “do they know me?”
I don’t really want folks in a professional space to “really know me” nor do I require that from management - especially in a highly technical position.
This article seems more relevant for personal relationships but just find it unlikely a partner “wouldn’t know me” after years - maybe weeks or months if it’s more casual.
Was expecting something more along the lines of “move on when you stop learning” or something for professional space but just my $.02
- allears 4y agoEven for personal relationships, it's one-sided and egocentric. It's all about the other person getting to know you? What about you getting to know them? A relationship is a two-way street, not a test that the other person needs to pass.
- metadat 4y agodieselgate, thanks for sharing this perspective. I totally agree with you; sometimes the psychologytoday articles miss their mark yet are still worth reading and evaluating even when I don't end up with a useful new tool or concept. I feel it helps me solidify and self-actualize what I am about and believe in.
