Elena Brower - Where to be .... a much needed mindful smack

Darlings,
it´s dec 10th already.
xmas creeping up.

arghhhh.
spent ystd in Innsbruck
and bought a few things.
no xmas presents though.
sighhhh.
ok no worries.
i am always a late shopper ;)

Today i felt i needed to hear
another Mindful Smack
from Elena Brower.
I havent listened to her
in a while.

One line:

Be with people where they are. 

We spend alot of time trying to convince others to be where WE are, to understand OUR side. But when we listen, and truly get quiet enough to meet people where THEY are, the door opens, communication is freer, and everyone feels as though they've been heard.

Most of us just need to know we are being heard in order to openly cooperate, collaborate, co-create. Thing is, nobody will want to listen to us if we aren't really listening. So listen. Be with people where they are. It will ALWAYS make things better.




with love,
