In Response To: Re: Collaborative Conversation (goran)

No offense Göran, but I think you're being very narrow minded. Ever heard the story of a man building his house on the mountain with a deep foundation, and another one building his house on the sand?

Well, the storm came and struck down the house built on the sand, but it couldn't shake the house on the mountain.

What if I came a upon a man one day building his house on the sand. Would I tell him he's doing it wrong and save him a lot of effort and money, or would I just leave him to his folly? Would it be manipulative to tell him it's wrong to build his house on the sand, just because he didn't ask for my advice?

I always listen to what others have to say and simple filter out the things that sound retarded. Afterall you can't please everyone, and noone thinks alike.

: The differance with jojo is that Steve actually ASKED him. Jojo didn't go and
: tell Steve what to do without being asked first. Therefore Steve got what
: he wanted from Jojo. The other builders visited Steve and gave him advice
: without having been asked to do so.

: What Steve could have done, was to ignore the unsolicited advice and ask the
: visiting builders for the advice he was interrested of. (if he now wanted
: to gain knowledge from them)

: In this method he gains what he wants. He gets to discuss and hear the
: opinions he's interrested of. The builder also gets what he wants, to
: speak about his passion and views. Win/win situation.

: So what Im saying here is that Steve should tell the builder, no! I don't
: want your unsolicited advice, show me respect and ask me if there's
: something I need help with instead. (like jojo did).

: I do actually agree with and like your way of thinking of win/win situations,
: and grabbing every good thought from all situations you encounter. Deep
: down I think in this way too, I've just chosen to take a different
: approach to get there.

: it's too late now, my brain is exploding
: 4.08 goran goes to sleep.
