What's the most underrated life skill? \ stacker news ~ideasfromtheedge

I very much agree. I take a moment to attempt to commit a person's name to memory when meeting them for the first time, and then using that person's name later in the conversation. This seems to be very important for interpersonal communications but is so rarely done. Most people ask "what's your name again?" which is precisely how I commit the person's name to my memory. I ask that question and answer it in my mind after I hear their name.

Cooking. I freekin love cooking! Better than I love coding HTML. LOL! I find it to be a rather meditative practice. Away from the binary, where failure can sometimes be a success. I am so happy I took foods in high school. Where I learned “mise en place” a French culinary phrase for gathering your ingredients and setting up before the cooking. You use a lot of containers for stuff, but it has made the cooking process so much more linear and smoother.

I'd like to push it a step further, love thyself. We all know ourselves but the struggle comes with accepting and loving ourselves.

Most are completely consumed with the exterior devoid of innerstanding.

I haven't had the pleasure, but I'm always reminded that others enjoy the bliss of ignorance. Regardless, the work truly begins with loving yourself.

What are we loving? And what is love? Only when we cast light in our shadows, and find our true self, can we fully love inside or outward.

The path of Knowing thyself is loving thyself. I would disagree with "we all know ourselves"

Although it may sound vulgar and rude, the most underrated skill is prostitution... something that if we think about it, everyone who asks would say "It's easy"... but at some point have you stopped to think about the disgust... displeasure... humiliation... and several terms that would be valid for a job where everyone sees you as an object with a price... that you can touch as you want! regardless of what that human being feels!! many of them exploited by criminal mafias as is the case in South America... people who feel and that the majority did not choose to be there with that job and in that place of the night... If you ask me a skill that nobody considers...

I was thinking "Saying no", but went with "relaxing". We live in the most materially abundant time in history, and yet many people act as though they're teetering on the abyss.

Relax and enjoy your life a little bit.

Is it remnants of opression by the Brits over centuries or a totally "internal" cultural thing?

I worked with a bunch of people from India in a corporate setting. But even though we were all peers, the Indians always behaved subserviently, never pushing back when it it was needed (even if they had the expertise). This made me very angry, because it lead to many stupid mistakes because someone didn't speak up in time.

I kept quiet because I feared it would come accross as racist but sometimes I felt like screaming "stop behaving like you're still slaves of the white man".
