Winning & Influencing Mindfully

I have no idea how many times I say something, or write an email, or post, with irritation on my mind. Or hit the numbers for Verizon, with exasperation. I do know that when I do, the result is often not great.When I remember to be mindful - to consider my timing, be honest, and be kind no matter what (and no matter who) –the result is decent. The other person seems more interested and relaxed. And I feel ok, even when I don’t get what I want.  Timing, honesty, and kindness: I’m loving this recipe because it feels like a win. And seems to influence everyone’s experience for the better. Maybe you’re already using it. Awesome. If not, check it out. If it works, pass it on.
