This is a YouTube video titled "The Best Word Shifts to Convince Others 💯🤗" containing a conversation recorded on October 9, 2023, featuring Allison Maslan and another speaker discussing communication strategies focused on positive phrasing to influence behavior effectively.
People are going to keep doing the very thing we don't want them to do. So it's like, you know, be five minutes early instead of don't be late, let me finish instead of don't interrupt me. It's have 10 words max per slide instead of stop putting so much information on your slides. It is a game changer.
Yeah, it's really thinking of if you're about to say something negative, what would be the positive?
You know, Esther Perel said behind every criticism is a veiled wish. So see the prompt is what do I wish? Right, what do I want? And often the mind will say, well I want him to be on time. Well, I want him to let me finish. Well, I want him to do this. And so just ask yourself what do I wish? And often that will help you come up with these positive, proactive words that produce the desired behavior.
