I’ve got a Thursday bonus post for my readers. I am very excited to tell you that I was featured today on Dan Miller’s website, 48days.com, and the post is titled “Hearing Is NOT Understanding.”. Dan is one of the foremost authorities on careers and you need to check out his site. In fact, at Affluent Student, I bring in many of the principles that he teaches to discuss with your children.
This post is a lesson in communication and messaging. In short, nodding, acknowledgement, and presence don’t equate to understanding. I did a little experiment in my day job and the results blew me away. I learned a lot about what I need to do better as a leader. You will also find some tidbits that you can use in your parenting journey.
If you like this post, I’d appreciate you sharing it with others. If you haven’t already, shoot me your email address using the Subscribe form below and you’ll be the first to know when new content and bonus offers are available.
Discussion Questions: Can you think of one situation that you can improve through repetition of message? How can you apply that today?
