The Joy Of Interaction | ETHX 089

November 14, 2018

Merriam-Webster defines interaction as "mutual or reciprocal action or influence."

I define it as one of (if not the) most enjoyable activities we can engage in as human beings.

Interaction is not only fun, it's also vital to overall health and well-being.

As I was preparing for this episode and writing these show notes, I kept thinking of Will Smith's character in I Am Legend.

In the movie, he's all alone, not counting the weird zombie people who only come out at night.

He longed for another human being to interact with.

The best he could do was stage mannequin's around the places he frequented and then talk to them like they were real people.

That got weird however, when one of the zombie's moved one of his mannequin's.

But you get the idea.

If you ever want to renew your gratitude and appreciation for other people, watch that movie.

You'll come away loving everyone you see (at least for a little while).

In this episode, I also share some of the positive benefits interaction brings.

When we make a conscious decision to joyously interact with everyone we see during the day;

We have more fun.

We learn.

We grow.

We feel better.

We develop new points of perspective.

We come to new conclusions.

We develop new understanding about ourselves, others, and the world at large.

We expand our consciousness.

We expand our awareness.

Oh, and did I mention it's fun? :)
