Wait One—Whaaaat?

That’s right:
  • Everyday Communication Sorcery (ECS) is yours forever.
  • The more you use it, the more quickly you get good at it.
  • It works on EVERYTHING.
Start Where You Are
 
Over the past two weeks, you may have been exploring the three ECS practices (Allow Everything + Request Anything + Admit Everything) that my sisters and I discovered in our Family Reinvention Project. Although you’ll discover lots more of these practices in the coming editions of this weekly Playbook, you could use only these three and create phenomenal results in ANY relationship.
 
Recently, I used the first two in a work relationship that was so aggravating that I have to admit, 20 years ago, the situation would have left me no choice but to quit

It took me a week. It took me asking for feedback from this person–twice. Using those two practices resulted in a breakthrough that would have been impossible in my past. Armed with what I had just been sharing with you, I had two “difficult conversations” with a person who I found difficult—and ended up with a collaborative colleague. (Honestly! This is simply TOO FUN.)
 
Full Disclosure

Just like anything new, Everyday Communication Sorcery takes time to get comfortable with and skilled at using. Use it every chance you get—and see what happens.
 
THIS WEEK’S PRACTICE:
 
Give yourself the time to play with Everyday Communication Sorcery. Look for opportunities. Have some FUN.   
 
Important Note: All you’re doing this week 
is exploring.
There’s no way to screw this up.
