IF I GET DEMENTIA...

1. If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality.

If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things.

I’ll be much happier for it.

2. If I get dementia, I don’t want to be treated like a child.

Talk to me like the adult that I am.

3. If I get dementia, I still want to enjoy the things that I’ve always enjoyed.

Help me find a way to exercise, read, and visit with friends.
4. If I get dementia, ask me to tell you a story from my past.

5. If I get dementia, and I become agitated, take the time to figure out what is bothering me.
6. If I get dementia, treat me the way that you would want to be treated.

7. If I get dementia, make sure that there are plenty of snacks for me in the house.

Even now if I don’t eat I get angry, and if I have dementia, I may have trouble explaining what I need.
8. If I get dementia, don’t talk about me as if I’m not in the room.

I still have feelings though I may not even remember what you said after a few minutes of listening to it.
9. If I get dementia, don’t feel guilty if you cannot care for me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

It’s not your fault, and you’ve done your best.

Find someone who can help you, or choose a great new place for me to live.
10. If I get dementia, and I live in a dementia care community, please visit me often.

11. If I get dementia, don’t act frustrated if I mix up names, events, or places. Take a deep breath. It’s not my fault.
12. If I get dementia, make sure I always have my favorite music playing within earshot.

13. If I get dementia, and I like to pick up items and carry them around, help me return those items to their original places.
14. If I get dementia, don't exclude me from parties and family gatherings.

15. If I get dementia, know that I still like receiving hugs or handshakes.
16. If I get dementia, remember that I am still the person you know and love.

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”

Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?

A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:


2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to

- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal

3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:

Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.

Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.

4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?

To get clarity.

You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.

It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.

5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”

Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
