170. Habits: The Real Drivers of Social Dynamics

Social skills, be they good or bad, are often the result of ingrained habits that develop over time. These habits can include things like interrupting others, avoiding eye contact, or not listening actively. Sometimes, people may not even be aware of these habits because they've become a natural part of how they interact with others. It's important to recognize that poor social skills are not permanent personality traits; instead, they are learned behaviors that can be modified with awareness and effort.

The good news is that social skills can be changed through conscious effort and practice. Just as good social habits can be developed, undesirable ones can be replaced with more positive behaviors. It starts with self-awareness—identifying the specific habits that may be hindering social interactions.
