No more advice! (Part 2)

So part two is not to be giving advice. Don't give advice. Instead, ask questions. Ask questions of what they want. Ask questions why they want it. Ask questions. How could you get what you want? Ask questions like, what would be the consequences of that process if you took that approach? And ask them lots of questions. Stop giving advice. Advice doesn't work. You're disabling them. Why? Because it's only your point of view. You're not in their situation, you're not their personality. You. You don't understand their environment. And even if you did, they're going to discount it because they're going to be thinking those things. So don't do that. Ask them questions. If you ask them questions coupled with, give them an experience, give them an assignment, have them do something in the real world. Then when they come back, give them no advice. Ask them what they learned. Ask more questions. I will tell you that if you want to be the best teacher, leader, facilitator on the planet, where people will trust you, you want to be able to transform and inspire.
