Quote: Anytime you find yourself stuck, there’s likely a Crucial Conversation you’re either not holding (silence) or not holding well (verbal violence). Quote: Our emotions are not a function of what others say or do but of the stories we tell ourselves. Quote: The first thing that deteriorates is not our behavior but our intent. Quote: If you don’t talk it out, you will act it out. Quote: The way we initiate a conversation will determine how others reciprocate. Quote: The sooner we notice the signs that people aren’t in dialogue, the earlier we can take action to return to dialogue. Quote: A compromise reached too soon will short-circuit dialogue. Quote: Creating safety isn’t just something you do in a conversation, it’s something you do through your behavior over time. Quote: Your ability to truly listen is largely determined by your motive. Quote: it’s not the other person telling you their thoughts that builds relationship it’s them watching you listen Quote: Feedback from others, while valuable, does not define our self-worth. Quote: Why would a reasonable, rational, and decent person say this? Quote: A conversation that ends with agreement is good. A conversation that ends with action is better. Quote: A plan to act is not complete without a plan to follow up.
