Intentions
When your intention is…
To be right
To win
To make them change
To prove I’m not wrong
To avoid conflict
To control the outcome
Even the best words can feel cold or attacking.
When your intention is…
To feel heard and understood
To repair and get closer
To honour both our needs
To speak truth in love
To create safety for us both
To understand what’s really going on
The same words will be connecting and land with grace and understanding.
So before you speak, ask yourself, what is my real intention in this conversation?
