A Masterclass on Hard Conversations: Part 2 – Mindset

We're doing an experiment. 3 episodes on the wildly important subject of having HARD but RICH conversations.  This is sooooooo important right now.  Right?  Difficult conversations usually involve a touchy subject but with the right mindset… they can be incredibly RICH and rewarding too.  Also, we're experimenting with our timing.  So each episode will be about 15 minutes long.  Short… sweet and to the point!  So let's get to it!   Listen To The Podcast:     RESOURCES: Give the gift of listening: mitchmatthews.com/249   QUOTES FROM THE SHOW:  "If you know your WHY, your HOW will come." - Mitch Brian Tracy once said, "Think on paper. Every minute you spend in planning can save you five to ten minutes in execution."   Adam Carroll says, "You have to know that the juice is worth the squeeze." The Dalai Lama once said, "When you talk, you are only repeating what you already know.  But if you listen, you may learn something new."  "Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak, courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen." - Winston Churchill  Way back in about 100 AD, the Greek philosopher Epictetus said, "We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak."   I recorded this one from Silverthorne, Colorado.  I'm on a little trip with my family but I wanted to record the episode with as much of YOUR input as possible.  So yeah… I set up a mobile studio with just about the best view… ever.   So… here's what my view looked like! :)   MINUTE BY MINUTE BREAKDOWN: 0:02 What to expect today 2:37 Six strategies to have hard conversations 2:52 Know you're why 4:07 Giving the gift of "not surprising 5:57 The gift of listening 8:19 W.A.I.T 9:48 Watch your but 11:10 Keep an open mind 12:44 Confident vulnerability     WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!  How about you?  What's a strategy that stood out to you?   What's something YOU are going to try this week?
