The Jefferson Fisher Podcast
Communication Habits That Build Your Reputation

I'm going to choose a tone that is going to uplift them. I like to say that your tone is your trademark. You say, okay, Jefferson, you sound a certain way. Maybe it's my voice makes people feel something or how I treat them. Everybody has a distinct, unique voice that I can never replicate. And you make people feel a certain way. Your tone is your trademark. So how do you want to be remembered?

Every single word matters. So choose words that serve you better. Choose words that serve the other people better. Cool? Two, second thing I would do is consistency. Meaning I'm going to show up every single time in that same mindset. Let me give a practical application of that. When we get in the conversation, what typically happens is we only think about the words.

We don't think about the feelings after. We only think about the current present moment. We don't think about what comes next. We just think of right now. We don't think about episode eight. We only think about the trailer. We only think about the pilot episode. We're not thinking about what episode 9 is going to look like or episode 10.

So it's very easy for us to say things that hurt or say things that are flippant because we are not paying attention to what comes after. Consistency means I'm going to be very careful that when I say things, I'm going to remember the next moment because I have to continue to show up in that consistent form. What that says is I want you to think of conversations sometimes as you're watching them.

You're watching them happen as if you're in the audience with popcorn and you're watching the conversation. You're going to ask yourself, will I be proud sometimes? of my performance? Will I be proud of how I reacted? Will I be proud of myself? I can't control a lick of what the other person says or does. Not a thing. They have free will. They can do and say whatever they want.

But will I be proud of me? Will I be proud of me? I can remember my parents getting on to me and my siblings, and I would say something, well, my sister did X, Y, and Z, and they're going, I'm not talking to your sister, I'm talking to you. You can't control anything about how they're reacting. I can only tell you about how you're behaving right now. It's that same kind of concept.

You can't control what anybody else is doing. Will you be proud of what you are doing in that instance? Consistency, what I would even, you want to take this even further? There's something in my mind that I kind of have as signature habits. I would create a signature habit. And that is, what are you going to be known for? and what you continually show up to do.

So maybe your signature habit is, I'm somebody who's very quick to apologize. I'm somebody who, if somebody wants to get in line, absolutely, I'm going to let them in. My signature quality is that I don't mind if somebody merges right in front of me, go right ahead.
