Dave Rossi: Using The Seven Habits Under Pressure (Breather Episode with Brad)

(Breather) After our awesome interview where Dave detailed the content of his new book, The Imperative Habit, I kept the mic running and captured some precious off the cuff commentary about how to stay focused on the seven habits when you need them most - when dealing with relationship conflict, facing tough interactions at work or in personal life, or experiencing anger and frustration. Dave talks about how you can use compassion and kindness to communicate your wants and needs and accomplish goals; how to live in acceptance and gratitude, but without getting taken advantage of: “You can say no with love and compassion,” Dave says. It’s a great little tidbit to close the book on the wide-ranging insights from our full-length interview. TIMESTAMPS:  When dealing with conflict, observations are not defensive, and stating your goals is not defensive.  [04:42] Sometimes it is the lack of awareness, not a value system that keeps you from doing something. [07:51] LINKS:  The Imperative Habit QUOTES: “Our awareness is a lot more powerful than our values.” “It’s not events that make us upset or angry, it’s our belief in them that does.” Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-get-over-yourself-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
