Tell them only what they want to hear!
Once again every professional career growth & development along with any business expansion & its improved profitability is directly proportional to the affirmative statements & decisions one is able to make along their interactions.
Basics of Human Nature (Remains same for Professionals as well as Entrepreneurs):
A) Everyone is aware of what they are doing.
B) Everyone is free to do & undo whatever they want.
C) Everyone is mature enough to understand & accept the consequences of their actions as well as inactions.
D) Everyone has the fundamental right to work towards the direction of their interest.
Our opinion matters only in the case if they are in need of any solicited advice.
Why is it a MUST to tell them only what they want to hear?
A) With the given facts as above with the basic nature of every human being including ourselves, it is sheer waste of time to pluck our nose into someone else's issues.
B) Why should one be adamant to become a hated or disliked individual by speaking any truth that neither matters or is not going to be appreciated.
C) Instead either remain quiet or say exactly what they have come to hear from you.
D) Of course you are in a position to understand & decide if the person is really interested in hearing out the other side of the story, it is only they one must take the risk.
Until then practice & master the methods to speak their truth, tell them only what they want to hear.
Listen, Study & re-calibrate:
The key to make sure that we maintain a very favorable relationship with everyone around is by not invading their intelligence. And in order to become that super liked individual in every circle, one can consider looking into the following aspects while interacting with others:
A) Mostly when we are interacting with someone, out of our habit we may form an opinion with our past experiences with them, practically blocking our prospects to understand them at that view point in time.
B) Start every interaction with anyone & everyone afresh, so here even if you may know someone, do not let the past experience block the open mindedness in hearing them out fully, listen with intent to learn more about that very subject matter they are giving details about.
C) Accept the fact that no matter however smart & intelligent we might be, we were not there to see, experience & understand the subject matter in the same way as the other person might have gone through it all, hence it is absolutely necessary to get into the details of the subject matter by hearing them out without interruption & judging.
D) It is only through uninterrupted listening one can phantom out the intentions of the one that is narrating the issue & those others that were all involved along with them.
E) Study the entire subject matter and now feel free to include your past experience about the individual to analyze & then take a call on how to present your views, understanding or advice.
F) Most importantly if need be do not hesitate to recalibrate your own perceptions about the explained situation & the individuals involved & have clarity on what they are intending to hear from you.
G) If they were narrating the entire experience only to vent out, then do not stress to say anything beyond nodding your head.
H) Along the line if you find out that they need some moral & emotional support then once again say only what they would like to hear so as to make them feel better & relieved.
I) You are under no moral obligation to say or share anything that they are not seeking or begging for, do not waste yourself by saying something that you too won't appreciate it in anyways to hear or experience if you would be in their shoes.
Tell them only what you may love to hear for yourself!
