Have you ever wondered why your children don't listen?
Why there is a struggle to get clients to purchase
your product or service? Why there's conflict in
the office? Why your spouse just doesn't hear you?
The questions that arise include;
- Are you communicating
from ego or compassion?
- Are you speaking in your
language or theirs?
- Is the message something
you believe they need to hear?
- Are you saying
something you need
to hear and haven't been listening to
yourself?
As I heard that line in the theater
I knew one of my obstacles was my own language, my
need to make
it my job or duty to get them to hear me. It hit
me that if God sees fit to talk to me in my language,
out of love, what ego (Edging God Out)
based fear is prompting me to come at this from a
moral, self-righteous "duty" platform?
If God get's His message across to billions, maybe
there's something to His form of communication.
If you or I have a message to deliver, if we are
passionate about what we are saying, how much more
powerful is it when it is put it in words that others
can hear and understand?
I see it everyday when individuals
allow their buttons get pushed because someone is
speaking in a language
other than English, when the speaker is using "big" words
or when the verbiage is "insiders" or "click" language.
The list of "whys" includes statements
like;
- It feels like they think
they're better than us.
- I'm sure they are saying something "about
us".
- What if they are hatching some "evil" plot
to overthrow the government?
One would think that
it is ridiculous how far we'll let our imaginations
go as a result of fear or frustration.
But that's the point. We twist
it all up because of our beliefs and our choices.
When we can recognize
that piece of human nature - how successful could
we be in our communications?
When we have a message
to get across, to business partners, associates,
clients, family, or friends, it's just possible
that putting it in terms so simple as to ensure that
all
within the hearing of our voices will feel the
power of the words, is tantamount to ultimate success
and
moreover, just as Neal Walsh said, it is done from
a place of love; from that magnificent place of
power in each of us. What voice will you choose to speak with today?
