Day 4: is it other people, or is it just me?

After spending a few days out of office, I was back to elevators and experiments. Another quiet day: people seem to take stairs rather than an elevator. It seems to be difficult to find an elevator filled with people.

Again, I waited in a lobby for other people and when a person showed up, I got to the same elevator with him. I smiled, thought of positive things and actually started to think about my own feelings and attitude. I felt like I should say something to this person, start a discussion with him. I never get that feeling in an elevator, usually I just want to stand there quiet and get out as soon as possible.

So maybe the experiment isn't about how you can affect other people, maybe it is changing yourself? Interesting.
