There’s a saying in negotiations that goes ‘The person in control of a conversation is the one asking the questions.’. Think about that for a moment and you can see the sense in it. When someone asks you a question, they immediately put you on a course of finding the answer. Your thought processes are controlled by the nature of the question, and you seek the answer to what they have asked.

Do you worry about things that are out of your control? Most likely, you’re nodding your head yes! Stop doing that and relax, because guess what?

Last week I made up all kinds of excuses as to why I couldn’t run the half marathon I signed up for in November. Having peaked at five miles with a ton of pain, I figured I’d give up. My son encouraged me. He told me, “It’s a mental game, you’re tough; you can do this!” I defended my position. I explained that as we age, cumulative injuries preclude us from performing like a teenager, our heartbeats slower, recovery takes longer, and I didn’t want to risk permanent injury.

Storytelling seems to have come into fashion over the past few years. Too often, we have tried to overwhelm our customers with logic, data, and facts; expecting everyone to respond as Dr. Spock did in the old Star Trek series.
