Recommitment
Wednesday, November 8, 2023
What are you ready to Recommit to?
I’m determined to “Recommit.”
That’s my Shift #5.
Usually a “recommit” for me is
Some physical task.
Recommitting to walk every day,
Or organizing closet shelves.
This Recommit is to Clear Communication.
Probably harder than organizing shelves.
Certainly more important.
I may even look for suggested guidelines.
Listen carefully, repeat back,
Focus, be present.
We know these.
Me too.
Easy for me to think,
“I’ve got this. I know this.”
And when I haven’t, or don’t
It can be painful on both sides.
So, my Friends—
I’m Recommitting to
Clear Communication!
Hooray.
Hugs.

Limerick:
If I really listen sincerely
I can get your message quite clearly.
Hearing exactly,
Not just abstractly
The real one; not one that is “nearly.”
