Do you truly listen?

Here’re 5 ways to force yourself, whenever you hear a counter argument or contrarian view to yours.

1. Hmmm…That’s interesting. Tell me more.
2. Resists using “but”.
3. I have heard it before, let me hear your version.
4. (Bite your tongue and shut up)
5. You may be right, please continue.

What did you win?

 

The sooner you gain the wisdom that you have finite time and energy and those two are better off spent on things you care about, the better your life will be.

What’s your recommendation?

When you reject a recommendation and ask for an alternative, be aware that it is an alternative. Not the best, not the most suitable. An alternative recommendation you ask for is at best a suggestion from the consultant based on your rejection of the recommendation. You can call it whatever you want, just so you are aware the alternative doesn’t always carry the innate endorsement in a recommendation.

Is it dark?

When it is the darkest, you need to be at your brightest. When it’s getting worse, you need to be getting better. That’s the only way to work yourself out of the situation you are in.

What are your options?

Almost anything that brings us good results and make us progress will entail an amount of effort or money.

If you are sick, you see a doctor and you nurse yourself back to health. If you don’t, your health will be affected.

If your business is sliding, you know you need to do something about it; then do something about it. Stop complaining that it is expensive, it is tough, it is hard work. Sure, it is all of that. But what is the alternative? Do nothing and see business slide even more and eventually risk closing shop.

What is your favourite medium?

There shouldn’t be. You can have a few that you often deploy and help you meet your objectives. But you shouldn’t have one that you hold on so tightly too; your go-to to solve your communication challenges. No one medium solves all communication challenges.

Read the patterns of what previous experiences teach you. Look at your current objective. Scan for any new variables. Simmer these in a pot. Add intellect. Stir well. Your solution is there.
