Episode #18 - The Precision Positive Interaction Project - Jack Auman and Abigail B. Calkin

Listen Later

Jack Auman and Dr. Abigail Calkin, two previous guests, are both returning in this episode as we explore how simple gestures like smiles and waves can have an enormous impact on another’s verbal behavior. We discuss the power of charting positive interactions and the ripple effect, butterfly effect as Jack describes it, of positivity in a world often overshadowed by negativity. We also share our thoughts on personal data collection in behaviour analysis, examining how using this data may impact inner behaviour of thoughts, feelings and urges.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

  • How Jack was inspired to create the Precision Positive Interaction Project (PPIP).
  • Why shifting from protest to positive action can be proactive rather than reactive.
  • The possibility of recognizing positivity amidst chaos and world events beyond your control.
  • How historical figures like Pavlov inspire modern personal data tracking methods.
  • Why positive affirmations and mindfulness practices are so useful in challenging environments.
  • How charting personal data aids in understanding and managing one's own behaviour.
  • How positive interactions can shift mindsets and influence daily life trajectories.
  • A story about addressing trauma in military personnel using positivity.
  • Insights gained from monitoring students' positive and negative statements.
  • How a positive upbringing shapes your outlook and approach to life.
