Nothing happens until you decide

✨”Nothing happens until you decide.”✨

Instead of asking for opinions, I am now focused on proposing solutions.

Do you experience the (email) ping-pong games at work?

Does this sound familiar?

“What shall we do for our team building activity?”

⏱Time Saver: “For this year’s team building activity, I would propose we focus on …”

Or

“Let’s connect in person. When is best for you?”

⏱Time saver: “Let’s connect in person. What about xx March at xx PM? Does that work for you?”

Proposing stopped the back-and-forth and decisions are made more effectively and efficiently.

Here are some lines that help:

▶️ “Can I make a suggestion?”
▶️ “I’d like to propose…”
▶️ “Let’s try…and then try something else if that doesn’t work.”
