- Личные дневники
This heartbreaking and heartwarming interview will help you face some of the challenges of leading during a pandemic. Eric shares principles he used from How to Win Friends and Influence People with his 15-year-old to overcome difficulties with remote learning, gain cooperation from teachers, and create peace at home with his spouse.
1) Try a new approach. It’s easy to fall into old patterns especially when we’re feeling pandemic fatigue ourselves.
2) Avoid the argument by using a calm voice. “Hmm, looks like there are missing assignments.”
3) Don’t say you’re wrong. “Maybe there’s a sync issue?”
4) Give a fine reputation to live up to. “I see you’ve been working hard.” Praise helps people feel less overwhelmed.
5) Ask questions. “Can you reach out to your teacher to see what the misunderstanding is?”
6) Dramatize the idea. “Can you include a screenshot of your completed homework?”
7) Empathize. “Sometimes there’s a stigma about mental health. Pay attention to warning signs like weight loss and kids not playing Xbox with their friends. Take advantage of resources like counseling.”
