June 04 … Talking the TALK
Today is a day for “enlightened” conversation. Unusual queries stimulate the person asked to ponder their lives anew; to re-enter the Here&Now & re-assess Who they truly Are … With this in mind, replace all your typical verbal banalities with meaning-full questions &/or statements. Instead of the typical (& these days meaningless) “How are you doing?”, ask people something intriguing – something that provokes a little introspection &/or enhanced Self-Awareness (e.g. “Have you done anything new today?”, “Have you learned anything new yet?”, “Are you on your Way?”, “Have you found Peace?”, etc) … Additionally, if someone appears distraught, instead of the relatively meaningless “Are you OK?”, offer up something different – offer up something sincerely Caring (e.g. “May I assist You somehow?, “Is there anything I can do for You?”, “How can I Help?”, etc.).
