7 Ways to Identify Your Strengths | Video

It’s a no-brainer to realize how important it is to identify your strengths. Additionally, this impacts how to get noticed in this crowded business arena. We constantly need to sell ourselves to others to showcase our values.

TV Host, Speaker, and Audacious Confidence™ Growth Expert Alicia Couri was an engaging guest on my show: Kick Conflict to the Curb. I asked Alicia how people can feel heard and get noticed.

The short video below is a 5-minute clip from the interview. Enjoy!

Has Procrastination Kept YOU Stuck? 2 Tips to Get You Unstuck

 

Procrastination is a career buster!

This article contains two tips to get you unstuck.

Procrastination can keep us from advancing in our careers.

We all know this, but we sometimes think and plan too much. And the opportunity disappears.

Joyce’s Story How She Got Unstuck

See if this sounds familiar to you – “Should I or shouldn’t I? If I do this, that might happen, but if I do that, this could happen.”
Those words kept me up for several nights until I figured it out.

I wanted to take my show Kick Conflict to the Curb and make it a LIVE Broadcast. Instead, I thought about things that could go wrong.  I kept procrastinating and only recorded interviews with thought-leaders. The next step was placing these interviews on social media. I felt stuck and couldn’t make the first move to learn how to go LIVE.

I decided that it was time to take the plunge. The next interview was going live! But, of course, there were technical issues, and I still needed to record the video without going LIVE. The great news is that after making a few more mistakes going LIVE, this communication coach finally gets it! 🙂

These Two Tips Will Help You Get Unstuck.

 

Tip One: Look for Several Options to Get You Unstuck

Ask people you know who succeeded in a project you want to pursue. They have faced similar feelings of doubt. Listen to their stories. This may stop you from doubting yourself.  Permit yourself to move on.

A massive shout out to  Trish Jenkins, TV Host, Speaker, and Author, for helping me along the way! She told me that doing a LIVE Broadcast is a game changer. She is right! I love producing my new show, Kick Conflict to the Curb, where I interview brilliant leaders on how they reduced their conflict and stress.

Tip Two: Take One Small Step to Get You Unstuck

Have you reached out to former clients who enjoyed working with you? Do you feel stuck and wonder if this will be too pushy? Your one action might be to call one of your past clients. Schedule this phone call with the client through email or text. This phone call could be your first step to continue building a solid relationship with your past client. And, remind him or her about how much you enjoyed working together. Catch up for a few minutes, and then ask if there is interest in you sharing your new services (in a non-selling way!) 🙂 

I’m doing this and need to say one thing: A phone call with a former client is a great way to close a sale! It works. Plus, it’s so much fun catching up with each other.

5 Quick Tips to Confidently Speak UP in Conflict

What do the words “Confidently Speak Up” mean to you?

Are you thinking of a bully or other difficult people at work or home?

You’ll find out what these three words mean to me after you watch the video below.

Audacious Confidence™ Growth Expert, Alicia Couri, host of her TV show, Unleash your Audacious Confidence invited me to be a guest on her show. The topic was Confidence in Conflict.

You’ll find the episode when you see Confidence in Conflict on July 25, 2022.

https://winwinwomen.tv/show/unleash-your-audacious-confidence

What Happens When We Don’t Confidently Speak Up?

  • It affects us mentally, physically, and emotionally
  • We stay up at night and can’t stop thinking about what we need to say
  • Doctors warn us that stress is getting us sick

We Need to Make a Change When We Notice the Signs

Our negative mindset keeps us stuck.

We allow others to control us, especially if the bully is our boss, a relative, or a friend. 

The signs can be any of the following:

  • Ruminating messages that go on and on
  • Being uncomfortable around that person
  • Feeling depressed
  • Avoiding conflict is not confident behavior

How to Make Conversations Safe to Confidently Speak Up

Nancy, a coaching client, had a bully as a friend. Nancy came to me because she was sick and tired of his constant judgment. 

She used the following strategy from the Weiss Communication Success Plan:

I don’t want to create stress between us. I do want to stop our constant disagreement and move forward.

The bully stopped his negative behavior and judgment. He started to respect Nancy because she stood up for herself.

Body Language Needs to Be Strong When We Confidently Speak Up

  • Stand up straight
  • Use a strong voice
  • Look into the bully’s eyes
  • Keep your hands open, which shows you are embracing the relationship
  • Be calm

All of these body language skills show that you mean it! This may disarm the bully from attacking you in the future. 

Thanks to Truth and Deception Detection  Expert Janette Ghedotte for sharing her Accurate Body Language Strategies with me during her boot camps.

Don’t Use These Tips When The Bully is a HOT HEAD

Especially when they are extremely angry. And if their nostrils are open and close like a bull.

This is not the time to have a conversation. You can say, “Let’s table the discussion for tomorrow.”
