Social Micro-Disciplines (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Social situations constantly invite us to compete for attention, comfort, status, even recognition in front of others. A few tiny choices make a big difference in how we function in these settings.This is the final installment in this series I’ve been doing on micro-disciplines.
