Buy the ticket
When I clearly state what I want in the right context it’s straight forward communication.
When I don’t say what I want and I am just selling myself AND I am out of context it’s projecting.
This happens often when people are looking for a job or when they are in a sales position.
Projecting is bad for you! It leaves a very limited impression. When you make statements about your value system, your top 3 strengths, etc. in a simple networking conversation, without being asked, it is limiting; what you are saying is that you’re good. Like everybody else.
If you bring a topic to unexpected heights you show that you’re good. If you do this neutrally, meaning that your ego is not involved, it shows that you’re great; this is your ticket for setting the context for other topics that maybe of personal interest to you.
