Respond In Power

Good morning ladies and gentlemen,

One thing that I am learning on this journey, is how important communication and words are. Our words can validate our status. How we respond to certain questions or statements cannot only help you build confidence in yourself but also how others perceive you. For example, when someone says thank you don’t reply with you’re welcome; without realizing it, your minimizing your own value. Words seem small but they shape how the world perceives you today.

Here are a few responses that instantly elevate your presence:

1.When someone says thank you don’t say “you’re welcome”, say “it was my pleasure” or “you can always count on me,” value your time value your energy.

2.If you arrive late don’t say sorry I’m late, “say thank you for waiting”, or say “I appreciate your patience”. Turn guilt into gratitude.

3.When someone asks what you want to eat. don’t say “whatever”, say “you choose I trust your taste” calm confidence is leadership.

4.If someone asks whether you know how to do something don’t say “I don’t know”, say “I can learn it quickly” capability outweigh doubt.

5. If you don’t know the answer don’t say “I have no idea”, say “that that’s interesting. What do you think?” Well placed humility earns respect.

6.If someone compliments you, don’t deflect it say “thank you”. That means a lot, receiving with confidence is strength.

7. If a guest says there’s too much food, don’t apologies. Say “you deserve to enjoy it.” Generosity doesn’t need justification.

Never speak carelessly every word either builds your presence or weaken it.

Here is the thing; the most important part speaking well isn’t manipulation, It’s awareness. Master your words, and you master how the world responds to you.
