Yep.
If I give them answers, they'll disengage.
And so the key at is you don't say as a leader, find me and listen.
You basically say, I had to find you.
And when I find you, I can then feed you.
I find you first, where are you?
And then I start to feed you the things that you're telling me that you need that allows you to be the person that you really wanna be.
So often I tell people the key to communication, the key to leadership is the ability just to get over yourself.
I mean, a lot of my positive change and growth in life
was when I realized it wasn't about me.
Whether I'm, you know, when people are speaking, you know, well, I hope they like me.
Well, really that isn't why they came.
Nobody came to have a contest to see how many would vote for you.
It's not about you, it's all about the people.
And the day that I quit worrying about me and started saying, how can I help people and generally make a difference in their life, everything changed.
And I think it's true in communication.
I think that's true in leading.
I think that's true in relationships.
I think it's true in every area of our life.
