We all see the world differently

"Make sure you blog about us," Man Utd-fan Kristine instructed at the STB Product Update and Networking session in Penang recently. Kristine and Ame were instrumental in organising the event in Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and Penang.

Being aware of the contrast between my and other people's view of the world, helps me get along better with others.

I find this especially helpful when meeting new people and establishing some mutual ground. This can take great effort, but I promise you, it helps me when relating with others. Often when we expect others to be just like ourselves, the result is frustration and tension.
