IQ is An Entry Requirement Only

“It’s not that IQ and technical skills are irrelevant. They do matter, but mainly as “threshold capabilities”; that is, they are the entry-level requirements…”

How We “Hack” Our EQ

➡ attention

<name>

➡ naming ➡ response

➡ continual practice of response leads to reprogramming

What Are Your Thoughts?➡ He/she is fully

wrong➡ I am right!➡ We always mess

this up➡ He/she will quit➡ He/she will hate me➡ I am a bad person➡ I will lose my job➡ I will get found out

➡ What Is True?

➡ What Is the %age Truth?

Thought Balancing

Thought % True Label Balance (What is True?)

I am right! 80% Black and white I am right about X, maybe not Y

This project is a failure

70% Black and white Some stuff worked, some didn’t

He/she will quit 10% Awful forecasting

I don’t know. Seems very unlikely.

He/she is an X 35% Labelling See them as an individual
