Managing Personal Effectiveness

Action Plan #1: Before responding, wait twenty seconds and see what else you can learn. Most people are uncomfortable with silence and will often disclose information they didn’t intend to just to decrease their discomfort. When I first chose this action plan, I decided it was a going to be a two way action for myself. I wanted to practice my ability to become more consciously comfortable with silence and practice waiting before I responded to or after making a statement. This is a very difficult task for me because I always like to talk and have not been real comfortable with silence in the past. On the other side, it is a very important issue for me to tackle because I negotiate contracts as part of my job function and this requires a tremendous amount of listening. During these three weeks, I kept a journal of my activities relative to situations where it was important for me to incorporate the above action plan.
