It may seem scary, but what if they say yes??? You will never know if you don’t ask.

Boundaries matter, there is no way to separate personal and professional. It will catch up with you.

Nurture it!

If Saul had partnered with Tuco instead of Walt ...

Keep in mind that Tuco's initial intention was to torture and kill all three of them. Nacho was able to get Saul a pass, but Saul goes back to save his clients. The outcome was about as good as they were ever gonna get. Later in the series even Lalo marvels at how Saul was able to save them all from certain death.

He played both sides so he always came out on top.

Saul had a suit on because he didn’t have time to change clothes, he wasn’t planning on getting kidnapped

thank you, Kwame, so much to unpack.

Please do more, Kwame. I found this fascinating. Are you sure you want to take the risk though?

I relate to Carlos. I have so many questions for Aristotle and others from history, like Aesop. Again, what is old is new, but with greater detail to deepen understanding and application.

"you want to dress like your prospect but just a little bit better. just a little bit" is that why you're wearing a sports coat and a t shirt

Too bad you missed the trip 😉

Thank you for such a great breakdown, I learned a lot from you

Casual Kwame for President! I thoroughly enjoyed this breakdown and I agree: style over substance. They were both well prepared and I do think Kamala was more effective with her strategies. She answered what she chose to answer, got in more talking points and seemed more proactive than reactive with her responses. Debates like these are incredibly powerful examples of the power of persuasion (and preparation)!

Come on. What do you mean she crushed the first question? A very substantive response? The question was: Are you better off today than 4 years ago? She didn't even come close to trying to answer it. The undecided voters out there are looking for answers. They're not ideologically captured or tribal - they're trying to improve their lives and wondering who to vote for. All she told them with her evasiveness was that things were better under Trump. Otherwise, enjoyed the program.

4,250 subscribers but so few views. That's weird.

Shout out to Avel and our production team for getting this out so quickly.

Thanks for sharing these practical tips - they'll definitely help me be there for friends and family when they're going through tough times.

Eye for an eye😂😂😂

Loved this episode!

Really digging her mindset of "I'm going to succeed with or without you, but you have the chance to be part of it." That's the kind of attitude that opens doors!

Loved this episode!

in a world that harbors on negativity, Negotiate Anything still believes that it doesnt need to ride that bandwagon, a light on this negative world!

You sound like you didn't even watch the entire episode, or you would have understood why Jimmy uses the mother angle. Also, Jimmy couldn't change his clothes since he was practically taken at gun point and brought to the desert. So, you are judging things that have been taken out of context. Next time watch the entire episode first

Kwame Christian got many good deals with big companies because he is good at negotiation and making deals. He made friends with Acast, LinkedIn, Forbes, and Audible. These are all big names in media. The deal with LinkedIn was very impressive. These skill helped him get big partners and become more famous in media.

This is some milquetoast, basic analysis. You want us to live in a state of "non-dysfunction" with people that we fundamentally do not share a moral foundation with. There comes a point where two sides are so opposed that compromise is nothing less than a surrender by one side of the equation. Some conflicts only end when one side wins. I'm not going to compromise with people whose ideal reality precludes my existence as a queer individual, because history shows us that the compromise between liberation and extermination is oppression. I'm not going to compromise with people whose ideology is proto-fascist, because to do so merely allows them to rally for another attempt later. I'm not going to compromise with would-be theocrats, because it merely allows them to install themselves into legislative bodies so that next time they can simply take without asking. Racism, homophobia, sexism, fascism, theocracy, patriarchy - these things cannot be compromised with, only defeated. Every call to compromise is a call towards a false peace, where those who struggle silently fade away. It's a peace of the grave, the peace of surrender, where those at the fringes of society become dejected and voiceless. The contradictions of the systems we live in have become to great to ignore. You cannot make peace with people whose ideology is violence incarnate. You can only fight back.

American Taliban is tearing our country apart.

sorry boy its harris now! our first female president will soon rise

i really want TRUMP to succeed and be elected as the next president!

While I agree with the overall message, I wish the speaker had offered more concrete solutions. It's easy to identify the problem, but how do we actually start fixing it on a societal level?

The part about algorithms and social media echo chambers really resonated with me. It's scary how we're being pushed further apart by the very tools that were supposed to connect us.

I appreciate how the speaker breaks down the problem from individual interactions to systemic issues. It's true that we can't solve this just by being nicer to each other - we need to address the underlying structures too.

This is such an important message. We've become so polarized that we can't even have civil conversations anymore. I agree that our inability to resolve conflicts is a huge threat to our society.

Fascinating to see how negotiation skills apply to marketing! The part about finding mutual benefits and communicating value resonates with what we do in marketing strategy. I'm curious to explore how these techniques could enhance our client pitches and campaign proposals.

Melina, thanks for coming on the show! Avel, great work with the editing!

I was a struggling sales rep with an important meeting coming up. The night before, I watched a KZbin video about persuasion techniques based on Aristotle's ideas. The video explained that persuasion involves three things: character, argument, and emotion. I realized I'd been focusing only on product features in my sales pitches, ignoring the other aspects. The next day, I tried a new approach in my meeting. I started by sharing a bit about myself and our company's story. Then I presented evidence of how our product helped other businesses. Finally, I listened to the client's concerns and showed how we could address them. To my surprise, it worked! The client went from skeptical to interested. I made the sale and even got referrals to other potential customers.

As someone working in PR, this is gold. The idea of treating persuasion like chemistry could revolutionize how we approach messaging. Definitely checking out the full episode and the book mentioned!

Idk man, this whole 'periodic table of persuasion' thing sounds kinda sus. People ain't chemicals, ya know? We're all different and stuff, can't just put us in boxes like that. But hey, maybe I'm wrong lol. Makes ya think tho 🤔

Interesting and revealing video. Thank you.

I’m not gonna lie I am not looking forward to voting for Joe Biden, but project, 2025 is scary as hell and if you don’t know what I’m talking about I suggest you read it at least the highlights. Donald Trump is trying to distance himself from now, but he praised on multiple occasions and the people funding his largest super PAC wrote it.

We fucked

Dumb and dumber

This was a very sad in America.

Jimmy’s energy and affect stayed the same throughout, almost like an emotional anchor. Tuco responded in how his how own energy adjusted to match, mirroring Jimmy almost like synchronicity. It is a beautiful demonstration of how effective it is to manage someone else’s behavior by modeling what you want to see. (Bit of a risky move when you’re in a desert with an unstable personality though lol)

The only 2 pieces we should take away from the debate is what we already knew that the debate confirmed. Trump loves to hear himself blabber on hence why he mentioned Biden sucks in 4 fucking ways instead of saying yes, I will deport every illegal. And of course Biden is no longer cognitively fit for office.

This debate was a wild ride. Both candidates had their moments, but the constant interruptions and talking over each other made it tough to follow at times. Biden seemed to gain confidence as the night went on, especially when discussing healthcare and the economy. Trump's attacks were relentless, particularly on law and order issues. The moderator had their hands full trying to keep things on track. I'm curious how this will impact undecided voters - did anyone change their mind after watching? It'll be interesting to see how the polls shift in the coming days. What stood out to you guys the most?

Wow, what a heated debate! Both candidates came out swinging. Trump was aggressive as usual, while Biden tried to stay calm but got flustered at times. I think Trump landed some good attacks on Biden's record, but Biden had strong moments pushing back on Trump's COVID response. The constant interruptions made it hard to follow at times. Not sure there was a clear winner, but it definitely showed the stark contrast between their styles and visions for the country. What did you all think? Who came out on top?

thank you @kwame christian for sharing your thoughts on this controversial debate
