Venture Capital, Thoughts and Much Less - Rami Beracha

Communication is a huge issue. It can be a minefield and is entirely our mistake. It begins one second after the initial contact is made with someone and ends with an incredible explosion...

The biggest error we make is always believing that there is complete alignment in expectations for both sides. We don't want to read the thoughts of our partner to figure the expectations he has. However, there is one thing that we almost always agree on: he doesn't miss an opportunity ....to expand the expectations gap. There's no one on the planet to warn us of the coming conflict.

There are a variety of reasons for confusion, and they are usually due to our individual personalities. Square personalities are more likely not to communicate well with liberal people. Aggressive personalities may struggle to align their expectations with passive people. This isn't difficult to identify - we all recognize squared from liberal and aggressive from passive.
What if they were different? Imagine the personality gap. No one has ever discovered it and warned of it, or investigated it...NOT even been frightened! !
Let me introduce you, gentlemen and ladies, a new type if personality we have in common The FULL-CIRCLE personality and people from the half circle! !

Note: A behavioral guideline - when you read the coming analysis look for which one of the two personalities describe you best and also try to figure out which one of your friends is. If you find that you are of two distinct kinds, as Bono states "we're two, but not alike" If you do, then you ought to be happy. You may have found the reason behind many of the differences in your life! If, for instance you're the same type and you are not, I am sorry to say that I am unable to assist you in understanding why you are in relationships that seem so bad.
And here we go...
Two distinct groups of people can be described as human. Some of us fall into the "full-circle" category that is a person that can be completely independent and does not feel like he needs to have a partner. Sure, he would like to connect with other people and, yes, he is always on the lookout for an individual to share his experiences with. Absolutely! It's all true ... But, he can survive without a dream partner until he finds one. After he has found his ideal partner He wants to share his life with his hopefully complete circle of friends.
The other human side is made up of "half-a-circle" kind of people that are (no it's not full circles that were damaged during the birth) (see below) ... Yes they are in need of an accomplice, yes, they want an ally desperately, indeed, they are in constant and almost religious search for a new partner... and , yes, it's as important as matters of national security that they find their perfect partner since they can't live without one. They'll never let go of the idea once they have found their miserable companion. To create a joyful circle, they will nearly join with the victims... however, don't let them do this absurdity of living together! They'll not be compromising on being able to stare at each with each other for the rest of their lives. Nothing less intimate can fulfill their desire to be integrated with another half and create an entire.
A notable difference between the two is the decision to let go of a partner. A partner who has lost their chemistry with the whole circle will be dismissed easily by the entire circle. Half-circles, on the other hand will redefine the meaning of having mutual chemistry with their companions' to be - 'im keeping this B..ST..RD, , until I am able to replace him with a proper upgrade'.
Imagine a dance where two half-circles and a complete circle try to please their partner. However, the Half is able to move two steps ahead of the comfort zone. The unexpected intrusion into his private space can be a bit daunting. So he fixes this zone-invasion-problem by making a gentle step backward. The problem is that he did this by removing the Half of his comfortable zone . While the Half believes that the Full has made an error that was not his fault and compensated with another step forward the Half begins to become annoyed and take a step in the opposite direction.. The Half.. Half.. and the Half are both a bit off. They can understand why, but since they don't have the right terms to explain their madness and turn towards the wrong direction. It would have saved their lives if they knew the difference between the Half and Full.
Although there isn't a single answer, there are many actions that can be taken.
