Discussion article for the meetup : Boston: Trigger action planning

WHEN: 21 June 2015 03:30:00PM (-0400)

WHERE: 98 Elm Street, Somerville

Mick Porter will be presenting on trigger action planning, which is a strategy taught by CFAR to systematize solutions to everyday problems.

Cambridge/Boston-area Less Wrong meetups start at 3:30pm on the first and third Sunday of every month.

The default location is at the Citadel Rationalist House in Porter Sq, at 98 Elm St, apt 1, Somerville (Occasionally, meetups take place at other locations, such as MIT or Harvard. This will be specified as needed)

Our default schedule is as follows:

—Phase 1: Arrival, greetings, unstructured conversation.

—Phase 2: The headline event. This starts promptly at 4pm, and lasts 30-60 minutes.

—Phase 3: Further discussion. We'll explore the ideas raised in phase 2, often in smaller groups.

—Phase 4: Dinner.

I'm a recent import to the Cambridge area - what should I know/do/ask before coming to one of these? Should I just show up at the doorstep? Or are there protocols, permissions, and snacks to consider?

Now I live something like 10-15 minutes' walk away from you, so arriving should be no problem!

I hope they've managed to advance past "if somebody criticizes your idea, ban them from the group!" because that's what happened to me after a criticized Comfort Zone Expansion.
