We make the mistake of associating collaboration with informality. I use the term data with caution -- as the wise philosopher Neil Young said, “Numbers add up to nothing;” and numbers alone won’t inform decision making.

They come to know me better when I share personal experience, or spend time with them in an informal setting.

Get information from different sources. Try to see their side of the issue instead of living your life with blinders on. Break out of the rut. Everyone likes routines. Learn by breaking them.

Employers send a SMS with little information about where and when the interview is to the workers’ cell phones with no tracking of receipt. Who do they trust as reliable sources of information on employment opportunities? For instance, there is a company sells SMS to employers only to schedule interviews, not recruit.

The process is straightforward: As the brain takes in new information, it rewires itself and forms new neural connections that change the matter of the brain itself. But over the last thirty-five to forty years, significant research has proven that the brain is far from fixed. The key point here is, of course, that the inputs matter.
