How are you multiplying your effect on others? Take the practice of positivity, for example.
Are you making it a practice to self-talk in positive ways—always attempting to make any lemon into lemonade?
With friends talking about others, are you focusing on good traits of others rather than always focusing on negative ones?
When conversing with parents, are you helping them redirect negative, coercive thoughts by prompting them to reflect?
With your children, do you communicate in ways so that they perceive conversations in a noncoercive, encouraging manner?
With fellow employees, are you acknowledging their contributions?
You can extend your effectiveness by practicing your skills in as many situations as you can find.
