#5 Simon Schulz

Simon Schulz has a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science and is a Lawyer working in Germany. We have a brief discussion about German culture and then get into the thought frameworks. In hindsight, I made a few errors in this episode. I explained the "Personality Venn Diagram" in a way that made it sound like the primary purpose of that framework is to help understand how people's minds change. But that framework is meant to have a visual representation of personalities. It can be used to understand how people get along or not at the first meeting and how people change over time when spending time together. I'm not sure why I communicated it that way, but here we are. The "Egg Game" is the framework for understanding how minds change, not the "Personality Venn Diagram". I also tried to just squeeze in the "Egg Game" at the end when I knew our time was limited. It was a ridiculous thing to attempt because that particular thought framework is difficult to conceptualize and covers a heavy topic. Mistakes were made, I have learned, and I will do better moving forwards! I hope you still enjoy the episode!
