Your Communications


Identify one specific thing you can stop doing today to be a more effective communicator. Then commit to staying conscious and changing it.

For those who need examples, common “stops” include:

Over-reacting.

Interrupting.

Pontificating on the same point ad nauseum.

Being distracted while someone is attempting to communicate with you.

Listening to gain ammunition instead of attempting to understand their frame of reference.

Having to be the center of attention as all times.

From my observations across three continents, stopping a negative behavior can be as profound – if not more -- to your credibility as starting a positive behavior.
