What to say? How to respond? Bu bu bu…Arghhhhh!
What do you do when you don’t quite have the words? “Help! Help! They’re asking me something, but I don’t know how to respond!” Relax, take a breath, help is on the way-it’s right here. When you are trying to play with doing things in a better way for You, it can be hard to come up with the right words and responses to people’s questions. Also, your past “go to phrases” aren’t always going to work or be accurate for the Real You.
Go To Phrases are a HUGE lifesaver when it comes to those moments in life where something must be said – but you don’t know WHAT to say. Clamming up, stuttering and blurting are uncomfortable, inapt, and not productive. It takes a few beats to really develop your language and communication skills, maintain emotional “composure,” and practice to appreciate who YOU really are. While you are experimenting with this, here’s what to do in the meantime-especially when people are questioning you and engaging with you improperly. You now will be able to respond to them in a calm and direct manner, while staying true, and feeling free of worry, guilt, and blame.
“Go To Phrases” are very effective when:
1. An individual states an opinion that strikes a nerve
2. There is a sensitive situation (a funeral, divorce, etc.)
3. You don’t know what your opinion is or how you feel (yet)
4. You quite frankly have NO response!
Go To Phrases provide immediate relief to a situation that may be confusing, emotionally charged, or uninteresting. Which Go To Phrase will you Go To?
