Look, once you put a grade on an instructor’s performance in the classroom, that grade is hard to look away from. We foc

Acknowledge your discomfort if you’re feeling it. Every time I’ve held this conversation with my students, I’ve told them something like “This is very awkward for me to bring up but it’s important for you to be as informed as possible.” If you feel uncomfortable, which you likely will, it will probably come across, but that’s ok. Remember, that vulnerability from the teacher is often met with vulnerability from the students. When you open up, they open up. If you’re sweating through this conversation, just say so! Remember, you’re doing it for transparency! Transparency and sweat is a better combo than we’ve been taught to believe.

The math explanation could fill an article itself. But the short version, Jerry studied those winning odds, and the timing of those Roll Downs. He realized that, statistically, a single one dollar lottery ticket was worth more than one dollar in those final weeks.

That’s why this is such an effective technique. It’s easy, and most of us don’t do it today, at least not on purpose. Just by ensuring your language stays positive and doesn’t stray into negative wording when you speak with someone for the first time, you can help tip the complicated mental algebra someone else is doing to try to figure out whether they like you or not in your favor. All it takes is some positive language.

The Selbees never spent a dollar on lottery tickets. Jerry’s bond with numbers and mathematics made it an obvious decision. For fun, he studied the figures on the back of the tickets and marveled at people’s willingness to play.

He knew he’d need to bet big to create a justifiable margin. In his first attempt, he bought $2,000 in tickets, which was an uncomfortably large sum for a man who never gambled.

Stay flexible. The conversation might take longer than you expect or go into directions you didn’t anticipate. I find that this is usually good. It means that the students are engaged and taking an active role in the discussion.

for this year? I wanted to move to Valencia, Spain. I’ve been there several times and always felt at home. I had gotten pretty far with my plans. I made sure I had no long-term commitments and was looking at properties. But like the rest of the world, I had to adjust my plans. We were all forced to participate in a classic Stoic exercise.

Just take the phrase “sticks and stones will break my bones, but names can never hurt me.” It’s categorically untrue, and we all know it — the words we use affect our minds, which affect our bodies.

Three months later, the next rolldown was announced. He buys a full $8,000 in tickets. His winnings total $15,700, leaving him a $7,700 profit. From here, things escalated.

Take opportunities to sympathize. Our students are intimately familiar with how various, at times arbitrary or at least reductive, metrics determine their fates. For my first-year students, much of education has been about meeting standardized test targets and maintaining a very specific GPA. They sympathize and often draw these parallels themselves, knowing the pitfalls of numeric evaluation.

If nobody won, the lottery purse went up each week. After 6 weeks, or when the jackpot hit the $5M dollar cap, they did a “Roll Down”. A Roll Down occurs when winnings are spread downwards to lower tier winners, at 5, 4, and 3 level matches.

But we underestimate our brains. Often, we perceive the physical world as more important than our mental one, and we ignore that how we feel and think has a very real impact on our physical reality.

For years, they sold run-of-mill goods but did better than most stores. Jerry analyzed prices from suppliers. Then, he identified margins and resold supplies to small retailers for a profit. He also had graphs and analytics on the earnings per square foot of his store. Jerry maximized everything.
