The next time you find yourself in conflict, don't just say whatever comes to mind. First, take a deep breath and ask yourself two simple questions before you think or act: "What am I doing and why?"

"As Oscar Wilde wrote, " A bore is someone who deprives you of solitude without providing you company."

"when you enter a room, you change the room. Understand your influence."

"Before entering any social situation, check to see how you feel. There's a mnemonic for this that anxiety sufferers use: HALT, which stands for hungry, angry, lonely, and tired. Are you any of those things? If so, ask yourself, "How might that affect the way I go into this room and what I see there?" Remember the saying:"we don't see people as they are; we see people as we are."

"If you just arrived in the room, remember that everyone else has been there longer than you."

"Nunchi asks you to find a balance between being who you are, and moving through the world in a manner that is most likely to get you where you want to go with the least amount of friction for everyone (including you)."
