To know for sure, you can imagine a person in the form of an apple. An apple has three layers: skin, flesh and core. What will happen if you try to «disassemble» the interlocutor into similar elements? How will this help you understand it?
The peel is the first impression of you. This is what everyone knows about you, from the barista who sold you coffee this morning to the unfamiliar colleague at work. How do you know what it tastes like to you? This is not difficult.
Remember if you are polite with waiters, sellers, taxi drivers. Do people like you when you first meet? Will your unfamiliar colleagues call you friendly? If you can confidently answer “yes” to all these questions, then do not hesitate: your skin tastes quite good.
Now let’s dig deeper. Pulp. Friends, family, those who know you well, all deal with her. Do you often gossip? Do you judge people? Don’t stand up for loved ones? Are you cowardly? Do you rejoice in the failures of your friends? Do you like to talk only about yourself? Can’t keep secrets? Are you not paying back your debts? Do not mind lying from time to time? If so, then your pulp, alas, is no good.
Here we come to the core. You open it only to the very closest, some people do not show it to anyone at all. Test yourself: imagine that there is a button next to you that you can press, and then your cherished dream will come true. True, about 1000 random people will die at the same time in the world. But no one will ever know that you pressed it. Click? If your answer is «yes», your core is hopelessly damaged.
If we divide a person into peel, pulp and core, and call each of these three parts «bad» or «good», then eight types of people will be obtained. Let’s see what these types are (we go from the peel to the core).
