"Have Your Checked Yours Lately?"

Hello  



 

And I was listening to the speaker as she shared some brilliant ideas about being more persuasive, especially when standing at the front.

When…

She said something to focus my attention even more acutely than it had been before.

She was talking about communication and said:

“Most problems are created by communication and most problems can be solved with communication!”

oohhhh…

And – isn’t she just so right?

My thinking is – to take a look at any problem area of my life – be that business, home, personal, professional, social etc etc etc and work out:

What the problem is
Where the heart of the problem may lay

And – if, as she suggested, communication is the problem – what I can communicate in order to put things right.

Let me give you…

Some examples:

A lost client connection – could well be just a few words in an email – meant one way – taken another

A partner upset – communication missing when it should have been present

A child sulking – orders issued as orders

Might it…

Be worth a few moments for a quick look around and see if there are any ‘problems’ solvable with a sprinkling of some mellifluous words?
