Hope you’re ready for a little in-your-face action <smile> Here:

You Don’t Listen and
You Talk To Much

(surprise)

You’re not paying attention (really) to what the other person is saying… You’re impatiently
waiting for your turn to speak… You’re bored, not interested, can’t wait to change the subject… You’re day dreaming— dog’s barking front porch light is on, but nobody’s home…

You’re interpreting what’s being said through your own filters… You’ve got your agenda (and you’re stickin’ to it)… You’re plotting what you’ll say next— which way you’re going to steer the conversation… You’re agreeing, disagreeing, making things said and the other person right or wrong, arguing, comparing… All kinds of mental-judging of what’s being said and of the other person him or herself.

YOU’re NOT Listening!

and

YOU Talk Too Much!

(surprised?)
I did say this would be a little in-your-face

Talk, talk, talk. Quack, quack, quack. “Enough about you, let me tell you about me… You think that’s something, well when I was…” One- upsmanship, my dog’s (my idea’s) better than your dog. I, me, mine… Sooooo self-referential, self-centered & self-absorbed… But hey, you’ve got important things to say, right? (Surely more important than what they are saying.) And here’s a BIGie: You’ve got to be right, so you make the other person wrong.

Or, you’re (always) selling something: Beliefs, ideas, plans, products, your deal… Where you want them to go, what you want them to do, who you want them to be… So you shift into marketing mode… Make ‘em an offer they can’t refuse, but so many do, refuse. Why? Because…

YOU Talk Too Much!

And it’s all about you…

Tell, Tell, Tell…

It’s one BIG reason people don’t listen to you.
What you need to be doing— 90% of all the time— is…

Asking

Ask. Ask. Ask. Ask. Ask.

The questions are the Answer. Find out WHO and HOW they are? What’s up with them… What are their Values (the things that are most important to them). What are their needs & wants, desires & dreams. Make a real Connection (not some drive-by posting on Facebook). Get into “Shipping & Receiving”— Relationshipping, Friendshipping, Partnershipping and Leadershipping. THEN you’ll Receive the rich rewards you’re after (and get this please: Those rewards do come AFTER).

“What we’ve got here,” Strother Martin, who played the prison warden
in the Paul Newman classic film “Cool Hand Luke” said,
“…is failure to communicate.”

Communication

It’s THE #1 problem (and #1 Key to Success) in any & every relationship, friendship
and partnership. It’s the fast track to the top in all of the “People Professions”— sales,
real estate, insurance, health care, healing, networking… For teachers, coaches, counselors, ministers, managers, builders & leaders of groups, teams and organizations… and especially Direct Sales MLM Network Marketers.

Improve your Communication skills fast
in ways that last.

We will… We will… ZAP You! Promise. <smile>
