To See Someone's True Character, Pay Attention to Just 2 Things - Alan Watts

#alanwatts #psychology #humannature #wisdom Do you really know who people are? We spend so much time looking at others, but most of what we see is a costume and a mask. In this profound talk, we explore the two simple, unguarded moments that reveal a person's true character—and how to see beyond the performance. Learn why what people say they are matters far less than what they do when they think no one is watching. This lecture reveals the two simple tests for seeing clearly. The first is observing how someone behaves when there is nothing in it for them—how they treat the waiter, the janitor, or anyone who holds no power over them. The second is watching what genuinely makes them laugh. Discover how these two unguarded elements bypass the "performance" and show you what is truly living in a person's heart. This is a complete guide to understanding human nature, both in others and in yourself. By learning to watch for these patterns, you can move beyond the performance, avoid hypocrisy, and make conscious choices about who you trust. This isn't about judging—it's about seeing reality clearly and fostering genuine character.
