There’s two types of communications:
Building and dismantling.
“Yeah but…” dismantles
“Yes, and…” builds
Our job is not only to find the ones that build, but to eliminate that ones that dismantle.
The ones that dismantle are good at hiding from us.
They hide behind our need to protect ourselves, our ideas and our egos.
If we can release the need to protect whatever it is we feel we need to protect, we can focus instead on the ‘yes, ands”
