Tell me more with an open face!



I challenge who ever is reading my blog (if there is anyone at all) to use these three powerful words when speaking to people. Instead of asking another question or asking why, simply request the person to expand on what they already said. Then wait and see where it goes. There may be silence, and that is ok, just let the person talk and you listen. I can guarantee that they will appreciate it and that you will find out something more interesting that if you continually bombarded them with questions or just didn’t listen at all. One more challenge, when you talk to someone keep your eye brows raised, see how that changes your facial expression and your voice. I think so many of us go through our lives with a frown and/or blank stares. Try smiling when you talk and just notice how the other person responds. But more importantly notice how much better your feel about the conversations you have. It is amazing how simply raising your eye brown can change how you approach people and challenges in your life.
