He relates to a story of how chickens can peck their possible rivals to death in order to get the top seat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I can unquestionably relate to this and have been defensive more times than I can enumerate. I did get confused about the chickens, that instead of killing each other, why not just stay equal, or take turns as top dog? Staying in the green zone can be a challenge. He says that there are lots of examples of ways you can calm yourself down. These are logical ideas, and I have tried these before. They work. There are some ideas that I have never thought of, and have been nonplus about how many there are, I will surely try some of these out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I like how he gives an example of how quickly you can turn from the green zone into the red zone. He says, \u201c&#8230;as you exhale, try too become one with this paper&#8230;\u201d, then suddenly yanks it and rips it, and turns it into a smoldering piece of wreckage. (Not really smoldering) I think there might be another hint. It may not just be yourself, but also how that a diaphanous piece of paper can turn into a mutilated piece worth zilch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To recapitulate, I think Jim Tamm is a brilliance, and I am astounded to see so many examples he can give. I perfectly enjoyed this didactic talk. I would definitely endorse this to everyone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Justin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The TedX talk is about how Jim Tamm talks about how one of the first steps to collaborating is to stop being defensive.
