How To Save Yourself In An Awkward Situation

I just. Yeah, I, I'm good. From behind. Today we are reacting to cringe. So we've got a number of videos here that we're taking a look at. We're also trying to ha. Also trying to find out how to save an awkward situation just like that one. So you can do it better in your life than I did right there. So let's dive into these clips. Tom Duncan. Oh, hello and welcome. Hurricane Irma has cut a devastating path. If you don't acknowledge the awkwardness of something and you treat the situation you are in as too serious to deal with a screw up or to have a laugh, then the entire thing gets more uncomfortable. It makes you more of a laughingstock. He would have been much better served to crack a chair. Joke about. I'm pretty sure this is the camera that I'm meant to be looking at right now, but there is a hurricane coming and then roll with it from there. Right. I'm gonna walk around and pick you up on another camera. I think. I wish we could start again, but that's all happened live on air. So we'll start the story again. What up guys? So I am here to talk about need for spe speed. So right here it's not going great. Let's continue Payback. If you guys didn't know need for Speed Payback, I'm. Yes, great game, but. All right, all set aside. I'm a YouTube creator. Need to feed. Payback is coming out. I got my boy Marcus, executive producer here. He is the producer on the game. Thank you, Nick for having me. He doesn't know his name. If you try to power through it and you don't know what you're supposed to say, you are much better off to stand up there and laugh at yourself. You want to lower the filter when you're talking. So many people think that there's only a handful of things that they can say in order to have the conversation work or in order for the presentation to go as planned. He had the answer in his head, which is, hey guys, this is my first time. I'm completely blanking right now. There was this entire intro which I'm supposed to give, but I, I'm just going to repeat myself because I forgot what I was supposed to say. But I do know that at some point I introduced the executive producer and again that's coming off the top of my head imagining what he's experiencing. But all of that he knew at the time and if he'd just been more comfortable enough to sink into the situation Say what was actually occurring and what was going on. Introduce him, laugh at himself. The whole thing would have gone better. Identity was really questioned, and I think it explores that in a really smart way. Well, you know, you. I was going say, yeah, that's not real. That's not real. Oh, excuse me. I know different. That is not real. No. Blew a little frog out of there. Talking about the safety of the nation. Did she really do that in a really smart way? Well, you know, you. I was going to say, yeah. No, that can't be real. It cuts so I can't tell if she tried to move on too quickly. Cracking the joke. Smart. Really tough to say. Heavenly Father, thank you. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for the. Oh. Oh, God. Because joy has come not terrible. To continue on. He saw the problem. But again, with all these things, if you just acknowledge it, it goes away. By the dawn's early light what so proudly we held oh, thank you. Good for them. He got it. He handled it very, very well. I mean, that's tough. And they. They, to be fair, came in and saved him with the singing. But he made himself a likable person just by sitting there smiling, inviting some of the laughter, and again, acknowledging the situation and not being too big to laugh at yourself when things screw up. When people maintain that serious face as they screw it up, it makes everyone in the audience very uncomfortable. The laughing invites people to help you, which is what you saw here. Dibs. What is your deck name? It flies. You dies. So, so far, I'm only halfway there. It depends on who the U is referring to. That's just. That's a mean edit. It depends who the you is referring. I'll see myself out. That's. That's the answer right there. Hundreds gathered today to say their final goodbyes to this fallen Louisville police officer. DD Deirdre. Dd Mega doo doo. Dd Mega doo doo. That one's amazing. Dd Mega. I get the DD a little bit, but Mega doo doo, yeah. Former British serviceman Leslie Binns turned around to save a woman who collapsed while she was on her track, but he's now attempting to scale the world's highest mountain again. He's going back and joins us now in the studio ahead of his next mission. Good morning. I think you have the wrong guest, sir. I just read the title. You are Todd Lambert, aren't you? You're so heroic. I looked at this man. I thought, he doesn't necessarily look like a mountaineer. I think our mountaineer is that man behind us. The worst cringe is when People don't acknowledge the weirdness of what just happened. And they all laughed about it. They cracked a joke that he's not heroic. And they've skated through this one quite nicely. You know that. Well, it's just tough that you have a camera on you. We've all been there. I feel like I see these NBA guys that are going for handshakes and they wind up doing this thing. I think everybody's had a chance where they stick out their hand and the other person doesn't see them. So I forgive him that he handled it very well. After the break, we're going to interview Eric Wyhen Mayer, who climbed the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest. But he's gay. I mean, he's gay. Excuse me, he's blind. So we'll hear about that coming up. Okay, as we head to the break, a look at the 6 o'. Clock. I don't know why that's so funny. I've been watching too many of these. So this will probably be my last chance to tell a story really quick. I don't know if you guys have noticed, but I've been knitting the entire time I've been here. I actually learned a knit from my grandmother. Can you talk? She died of cancer a couple years ago, and there's actually pretty much a 50% chance I'm gonna die of cancer. My dad's entire setup family has died of cancer and. Oh, my God, I can't breathe. What the hell? I believe urinating deserves a great round of applause for good. For that dude. For stepping up, man. Yeah. So this is where you get that bystander effect thing. And every single person is hoping that someone will say something. If you're sitting back praying that somebody else is going to speak when you enter the elevator or introduce themselves when you haven't met yet at a party among common friends, the best answer is always to kill the awkwardness in that situation. Go first, open your mouth. Introduce yourself to that person. It helps a ton. So I didn't even see who said it, but good on you, dude. And 19 Friday. But, Tony, the good news is nice and sunny for the weekend. You should come around for a Barbie. Thanks. Okay, okay. That's all our news from now from all of us. Have a great weekend. Even you, Beck. And good night. Ah, I wish I knew the details behind that interaction. If he was just making an errant comment or if she was legitimately asking her out. I wonder if he's married. I'll miss you all, too. Wish me Luck. Same guy. No, wait, is this the same dude? The Carlton supporters are very excited. Well, they should be. Yeah, exactly. Okay, good. This is going well. You're funny. All right now Melvin, that's what's news this Monday. Enjoy your evening. Now the other one is making more sense. Why she didn't play along with the barbecue thing because I don't think it was an arrangement. That's good context. So I hope this video has been helpful in some way to get you out of awkward situations and into a normal interaction. Or quite frankly just have your awkward situation and then move into a semi less awkward interaction. And coming at you from the future for a second here, one thing that I wanted to mention is if you want to avoid these situations in the first place, you very much might like our Charisma University. Charisma University is a 30 day video program that is intended to help you become your most charismatic and confident self in the moments that count the most. And it's the thing that I think is the most effective from taking you from all this charisma stuff being fun theory, to actually living it and practicing it unthinkingly in your day to day life. The way that it works is it's broken into 30 days and each day has roughly 20 minutes of video plus one action that you will do throughout the day. And that way by the end of it, you've built up habits and everywhere from how to make an amazing first impression, answering questions like what do you do? Or where are you from? To how to be more confident in stressful situations, whether that's at work or talking to someone that you maybe like all the way through, having flowing conversations, body language, leadership, all of this is included in the 30 days. And in terms of building unthinking habits, I think it is very, very well laid out. I'm biased having made it myself, but I think it's fantastic. And if you're anything like me, chances are that during lockdown your social skills might have fallen off a bit. So this can be a fantastic way not just to take it back to where they were, but even beyond that. So you are your most charismatic and confident self. So if you want to check that course out, you can do so in the link below. It comes with a 60 day money back guarantee, which means you can go through the whole thing twice technically decide if you like it and get your money back if it's not for you. So you really don't have anything to lose. I hope that if you're a fan of this channel and you want to take this stuff to the next level, you consider checking it out. But either way, I hope that you guys have enjoyed this video and I will see you in the next one. Take care. Peace.
