These 4 letters changed everything
There's an acronym I heard last summer that I think about almost every day.
It comes in handy for:
- All types of content creation
- Relationships
- Teaching
- Learning
It will probably come in handy on Thanksgiving. The acronym is W.A.I.T.
Why Am I Talking?
It's a fantastic little self-check tool that keeps conversations purposeful and relevant.
Questions you might reflect on when using WAIT:
- Is this the right time for my input?
- Am I adding value, or am I just filling silence?
- Will this help the discussion or distract from it?
- Am I speaking to understand or to be heard?
Also, if you are in the US, maybe WAIT before you go for seconds or thirds. ;)
