Exercises

Make a random verbal offer. Repeat the offer, amplifying it with a random emotion. Repeat the process with new random verbal offers and random emotions.

Exercises

Make an offer. Repeat the offer with a point of view. Continue repeating it with a progressively stronger point of view. Eventually, something new will show up. When it does, explore that.

Topics
going against the intention of an offer

When you don’t go along with someone’s idea while still maintaining its truth, that’s a resist.

Exercises

Treat Twitter tweets as though they were things said to you in a scene. Use the Gimme Getter to call up a random way to respond (e.g., follow, build, amplify, etc.). Keep repeating the process, getting new ways to respond and new tweets.

Topics
an offer that is open to interpretation

When an offer isn’t fully defined, that’s an undefined offer. Undefined offers are ambiguous.

Topics

It can be scary to move forward when you can’t see what’s ahead. (Try going for a blind walk.) When you don’t know where things are going, don’t let “not knowing” keep you from moving forward. Advance with confidence. See where the story and the spect will lead you.
