Hello,

In this week's edition, I look at how to negotiate a raise. My daughter Mikhaila and I explain the current situation with the College of Psychologists of Ontario, and I pull from the archives on how "We Are Being Enticed Into Taking the Easy Moral Route Forward."


** How to Negotiate a Raise
------------------------------------------------------------

If you want a raise it will take a lot of courage to step into the office of your boss and say “I want a raise.” If they say, “We do not have any extra money at the time,” and if you accept that and then leave, that is not a good negotiation. If you want something, the first thing you have to do is set up options for yourself. Decide whether or not you deserve to have a raise. You cannot just ask for one; you have to make a case for it. How do you know if you are in a position to ask for a raise? Part of it is that you have other options. Put your CV or your resume in order, make it tight, and then look around to see what other employment options you have — options that you would, in fact, take — and see what your market value is. Then decide how much of a raise you want and why it would be in your boss’s best interest to offer you it.

You need to have options, and you have to negotiate from a position of strength. Also, you have to know what you want. Then you have to develop strategies for communicating what it is that you're asking for, and you have to be forthright about that. You have to think through the reasons because, otherwise, you will not have enough courage to tolerate the conflict that it might entail to withstand the negotiation.

I think if you are an agreeable type, one way of fortifying yourself is to understand how much misery and conflict you may be storing up for yourself in the future if you refuse or if you refuse to engage in reasonable negotiation on your own behalf in the present.

"If you are not capable of cruelty, you are absolutely a victim to anyone who is. Part of the reason that people watch anti-heroes and villains is that there's a part of them crying out for the incorporation of the monster within them." (Share this on Twitter) ([link removed])

"The positive emotion system is to facilitate movement forward to a better place. That is its function. That is so interesting because it means if you are not moving to a better place, then you do not have any positive emotion." ( ([link removed]) Share this on Twitter) ([link removed])

"Do not say things you do not mean, and do not go along with things you do not agree with." (Share this on Twitter) ([link removed])

We Are Being Enticed Into Taking the Easy Moral Route Forward | Jordan B Peterson

Dr. Peterson:
"There is not anything more important to someone economically, practically, socially, or biologically than their reputation because their reputation is a marker of their deserved standing in the social community and their viability as a trading and playing partner. And the way you accrue reputation points is through diligent effort and generosity fundamentally, but you can game that. And you game that by taking shortcuts to ethical prowess when you are offered them in a tempting manner."
