The Importance of Making Requests
Does this sound familiar? You wish to God so-and-so at work would just understand all those subtle hints you keep leaving. You would SO love your partner to just freaking read your mind when it comes to birthdays, dates, even leaving his socks lying around.
What's wrong with this picture? The request is missing, that's what.
Requests are actually simple. And they're your single biggest tool to get your needs met—but so often we don't make them.
Listen in and hear about:- The secret agendas that derail requesting
- The cost of unmet needs
- Why requests are so crucial to happiness
- Mind reading and what it costs us
- Making powerful requests at work
- A useful communication tool in relationships
We're hoping this show can move you towards powerful request-making, if that's a stumbling block. Seriously, they can make all the difference!
Here to you and your happiness!
