WEBSITEYeah, no, welcome back! Today, we have a level-up in communication for you. It’s called “You versus I Language,” and once you’ve seen this, you’re never gonna be able to unsee it.
Take a look at this:
“You know, as guys, we don’t normally talk about our emotions.”
Did you notice anything wrong with that? Let’s watch that again:
“You know… do I? Whereas guys… which guys? We don’t normally talk about our emotions.”
Are you saying I don’t? Who are you talking about here? He’s actually annoying me!
Look what happens when we chuck an I in there:
“I don’t know if you know this, but I don’t normally talk about my emotions.”
That feels a lot better. You know why? When I use I language, I own what I’m talking about, and I also feel it.
So, my challenge is to use “I,” “me,” or “myself” the next time you’re speaking about you.
