If we go into a negotiation focused on winning every individual point, we may often fail to actually achieve our interests (much like Internet pundits arguing against certain issues, but only providing them more visibility and respectability in the process).

]]> Comment on Time Perspectives of Philip Zimbardo by Turil http://www.nehrlich.com/blog/2008/11/12/time-perspectives-of-philip-zimbardo/#comment-183783 Turil Thu, 20 Nov 2008 19:01:50 +0000 http://www.nehrlich.com/blog/?p=892#comment-183783 I have a theory of time and how it relates to the three main elements of human beings' developmental processes - physical, intellectual, and emotional. Using the stages of development that Maslow and other researchers have discovered as a basis, it seems that the things that have happened to us in the past primarily define our physical stage of development, the things that are happening in the present primarily define our emotional stage, and the things we imagine will happen to us in the future define our intellectual stage. So, if you perceive your past in a positive light, you'll see yourself as being physically well developed, if you see your present situation in a positive light, you'll feel emotionally well off, and if you imagine your future in a positive light, you'll get the impression that you are extra clever. :-) There's a lot <a href="http://www.thewiseturtle.com/hierarchyofneeds.html" rel="nofollow">more</a> to the theory, but that's one of the shorter versions of one of my many "stories" of what I've found to be a some really powerful classification system.

There’s a lot more to the theory, but that’s one of the shorter versions of one of my many “stories” of what I’ve found to be a some really powerful classification system.
