TIME TO KILL...

It's 2:00 on Wednesday afternoon.  I'm sitting here waiting for class at 2:45.  Day 22 is frame-changing day where my mission is to change the frame of a negative conversation into the frame of a positive one.  For instance, if I talk to someone and I hear them complain about something like "My friend keeps nagging me.  Geez!"  My mission is to change that negative frame into one that is positive by responding with something like "Maybe your friend nags because they care.  They wouldn't nag if they didn't care."  Then, my second task is to go in-field and purposefully change the frame of a conversation with a stranger.  The whole idea behind this exercise is that if you can control the frame of a conversation, then you can control the outcome of that conversation.  Interesting stuff!
