What's the matter?
Speak as Carl
Speak as Rob
Rob: Nothing. I am just really stressed out these days.
Carl: Why is that?
Rob: My manager asked all of the sales team members to think of three ideas to increase sales next quarter. I haven't been able to think of anything.
Carl: You might be worrying too much.
Rob: What do you mean?
Carl: If you try too hard to think of the perfect idea, then you will never come up with anything. You should relax and go with the first ideas that come to your mind.
Rob: Are you sure that will work?
Carl: Well, it can't be any worse than what you are doing now.
Rob: That's a good point.
