And I wish that I wasn't that way.
If that's you, if you're listening and go, I wish I could be more direct.
I really don't know how it sounds and I really don't know how to do it.
This is the episode.
I'm going to teach you exactly how to do it.
So what is being direct?
It is a straight line from A to B.
That's what it is.
No farther than what it needs to be.
No longer than what it needs to be.
It is not a detour.
I want you to think of it like Google Maps or Waze or whatever you, you know, however you, maybe MapQuest, anybody?
Think of it as a straight line.
You're not taking any detours.
You're not taking the scenic route in the conversation.
You are getting there as fast as you can, most efficiently as you can.
Yes, it's not artful.
Yes, it's not some fancy sounding, very flowery language.
It's just getting right to the point of exactly what you need to say.
So that's what direct is.
