Required Social Interaction Help

Post Reply New Topic

Anyone have advise on how to stay focused, un-frightened - when dealing with professional business outgoing NT's?
Usually I avoid any interaction like this as it causes all sorts of trouble for me, but there is a situation right now that I must do, and do alone. (RealEstateAgent)

For me, it really helps to plan things out. I don't spend hours or obsess or anything, but I do take a moment to consider the possible messages what I plan to wear might send for instance. I figure out some basic things I can say during small talk, and ways to try to steer the conversation towards them plus a lead-in to whatever I really want. That way I have at least a sort of loose script to work with.

I don't really know what else Real Estate Agents do besides accept new contracts to sell properties, lead potential buyers on a tour of the property, and then hand people a pile of paperwork and give a sort of speech about all the things they're signing, but if you're doing any of that, that would be pretty easy to script out.

Thanks, BetwixtBetween; going to write a little list out right now. And change into clothes that don't look like pajamas. And, yep that is what will be happening, typical real-estate stuff. Just that for me it is extremely challenging.
