“A negotiation isn’t a fight. It’s two people figuring out what they can both live with.”

“Listening is a power move. People tell you exactly what they want if you let them finish.”

“Small advantages stack. The player who’s slightly better in every exchange rarely needs a miracle.”

“Before you celebrate the plan, ask: if this goes perfectly, what’s the next problem?”

“The location of a microphone changes whose experience becomes the record.”
