Raoul Crisan's Key Ideas from Think Again
by Adam Grant

If you have too many arguments, you'll dilute the power of each and every one.

They are going to be less explained and i don't know if any of them will land enough.

The audience will not believe them important enough.

Most top debaters aren't citing information.

When we ask our debate partners genuine questions, we leave them intrigued to learn more.

We just need to open their minds to the possibility that they might be wrong.

Their natural curiosity will do the rest.

Motivational interviewing starts with an attitude of humility and curiosity.

We don't know what mint motivate someone else to change, but we're eager to find out.

The goal isn't to tell people what to do; it's to help them break out of overconfidence cycles and see new possibilities.

Out role is to hold up a mirror so they can see themselves more clearly and empower them to examine their beliefs and behaviours.

When we try to convince people to start to think again, our first instinct is to usually to start talking.

Yet the most effective way to help others open their minds is often to listen.

Listening is more than a matter of talking less. It's a set of skills in asking and responding.

It starts with showing more interest in other people's interests rather than trying to judge their status or prove our own...

We can all get better at asking truly curious questions that don't have a hidden agenda of fixing, saving, advising, convincing or correcting.
