Ice Chip #9
This week our focus is still on the process of Education.
My passion centers on the role word choice plays in the effective application of these ice chips.
Playing with the (k)nots in your language and figuring out how to untie them is the best way to begin. The focus required serves several purposes. While you are learning to eliminate confusion from your rhetoric, you're learning to choose words that create clarity. You are also learning how and why some words are disempowering, and how to replace them with words and phrases that are empowering instead.
It's also a fun way to introduce you to the processes of Education and Re-Education so that you can take the information and run with it. Here is to jogging at a nice pace.
Begin thinking about changing one of the (k)notty words, and notice how many times you catch yourself uttering one. Think about the confusion that you may have caused in your own mind or that of your listener. How can you shift that and eradicate that weird feeling?
We will address this a bit more next week.
Have a great week.
Best regards,
Bob
