988. Use Tension To Your Advantage. ~ Cash Nickerson

from What’s Your Problem? with Marsh Buice · host Marsh Buice

Today, I'm going to show you how to use tension to your advantage instead of running from it. Tension is always present—in conversations, negotiations, relationships, and decisions—and where most people freeze, get aggressive, or flee, you can learn to sit in it and work inside it. I break down the two forces that are always at play—timing and leverage—and why neither one is ever static. Even when you don’t have the advantage in the moment, awareness changes everything. Learn how to spot tension, protect it, and apply productive pressure that helps you—and others—move forward with clarity and confidence.Thanks to Cash Nickerson's book "The Seven Tensions Of Negotiations" for inspiring this episode. TEXT ME!Support the show📣Who needs to hear this episode?
