When people complain, rant, vent it’s never fun to hear about for more than a minute or two. Yes let people get it off their chest but don’t let them continue down that same sad story.
This question can be very powerful when asked at the right time in the right way. You really want to be in rapport before asking this one. It can definitely create a knee jerk reaction or a powerful conversation moving towards the solution. When you ask this from a place of love, conviction and hopefulness, this can be great!
How long do you want that to be your story? This question was first asked to me by a man name Jeffery Combs who is all about transformation and assisting people to have way better results. This is a great question for coaches, mentors, leaders, and anyone wanting to help their connections shift towards good.
