Words
Disclaimer: all below require context and balance, obviously.
Words we use too much:
-Me
- I
- I think
- I can't do...
- I won't do...
- I want
- I need
Words we do not use enough:
- You
- Thank you
- I am sorry
- I appreciate _____
- What do you think?
- How are you? (and actually listening to the answer).
- I can...
- How can I help...
The words on the bottom often lead to happiness. The words on the top often lead to disappointment.

Great post.
ReplyDeleteHow are you? (And actually listening to the answer) -- yes, I think we need to listen more.
Just as I'm typing this I hear one person ask another, "How are you" and then walk away. Haha!
