🗨️ Small Conversation Hack
If you're on a mission to build your social circle, you'll be meeting copious amounts of new people constantly. And when you do, you can be sure as hell everyone is going to ask you the inevitable, “And where are you from?” When faced with the question, most people simply give their one-word answers: Toronto, Miami, London, etc. Whilst this does answer their question, the reality is that most people ask it not because they are truly curious to know where you were born, but because it's a safe and easy way to try to get a conversation going with you. They are trying to connect with you! Do humanity and yourself a favour. Never, ever, give just a one sentence response to the question, “Where are you from?” Give the asker some fuel for his tank. Give the other person something to conversationally nibble on. All it takes is an extra sentence or two about your city—some interesting fact, some witty observation—to hook the asker into the conversation. To do this, all you have to do is learn some engaging facts about your hometown that conversational partners can comment on. For example: — "So Karim, where are you from?" — "I'm from Mexico City, a tiny cow town of 23 million people. Have you ever been?” I’m using both sarcasm/humour and adding an interesting fact about my city that will definitely keep us talking. From this point on, the conversation can go in many different directions: big cities vs small cities, international travel, Mexican culture, etc. If you want to put this technique on steroids, tailor the extra comment about your city to the context of whoever asked. For example, let’s say you are from Columbus, Ohio: - When you are talking with a businessperson, your answer could be, “I’m from Columbus, Ohio. You know many major corporations do their product testing in Columbus because it’s so commercially typical. In fact, it’s been called ‘the most American city in America.’ They say if it booms or bombs in Columbus, it booms or bombs nationally.” - Talking with someone with a German last name? Tell her about Columbus’s historic German Village with the brick streets and the wonderful 1850s-style little houses. - Your conversation partner’s surname is Italian? Tell him Genoa, Italy, is Columbus’s sister city.  - Talking with an American history buff? Tell him that Columbus was, indeed, named after Christopher Columbus and that a replica of the Santa Maria is anchored in the Scioto River.  - Talking with a student? Tell her about the five universities in Columbus.  - You suspect your conversation partner has an artistic bent? Remind him that Columbus was the home of artist George Bellows.

This is awesome because it creates more ways for the other person to engage in the conversation. By extending your answer with an additional topic, the conversation has direction and starts to flow. You’ll avoid the conversation feeling like an interrogation. Because the conversation will flow naturally, your conversation partner will think you are interesting. @Karim Gonzalez Thank for the deep dive on “where are you from?” I think we can also apply this to questions such as “what do you do?”.
College
One question I have been pondering guys. If we are more logical than women why do they do better in school?

@Nolan Ziyi Jiang I think this is called the variability hypothesis. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variability_hypothesis

Does being a being best seller novelist has high status these days?
Particularly for net working with other high status people? I am under the impression writers are not as high status as they used to be due to the availability of other media. If I am wrong, I will happy to learn so.

Michael talks about getting to interview Dan from reading his book at the 3:40 mark.
Business cards
Thoughts on using business cards? Good idea? I have a food blog I like to tell people about and was thinking of having some cards made up with that, my IG, and a contact email address.

It depends on what your goals are and who your audience is. Questions I would consider are: 1. Who are you giving the business card to? Are they part of your blog’s target audience? 2. What value would your blog provide to them? 3. Are there reasons you wouldn’t exchange contact info instead of giving out a business card? 4. How are you monetizing the blog? Increasing readership for ad impressions versus selling a product or service could change what mode of marketing is most effective. Some caveats: 1. If the blog is just a hobby, do whatever you want. 2. No matter which kind of marketing one picks, one can come up with reasons why it doesn’t work. 3. Read Alex Hormozi’s books. He explains the fundamentals of crafting an offer and effective marketing.
