Words are powerful when the person(s) take action on your words. Using the right words in the right order will enhance your rewards. When you hear the word communication, you probably think of speaking words. Most people do think of words. Words will allow you to perform well in the game of communications. We have heard the phrase “the art of communication.” That phrase means that you or someone else has given a speech, presentation, lecture, persuasion, etc. in a professional manner and cause someone to do or respond the way you wanted them to respond. To achieve this level of communication, you must rehearse, review and revise to achieve the level of being a professional.
Who do you know that uses words to the level of being a professional? There are many groups and here is a very short list:
Politicians
Lawyers
Salesmen
Doctors
Professional speakers
Teachers
and the list continues.
Everyone is concentrating on using the proper words all the time. Yet, have you ever considered there are words that should not be used? Some words will give the impression of degrading the importance of your words.. We have heard the phrase “it’s the little things that can kill you,” and that holds true to words you should not use in your persuasions. The words not to use are little words and they will create a huge negative impact in the subconscious mind of your audience.
These words are in no specific order and no word is more or less harmful than the other. Here are words you should take out of persuasion vocabulary:
TRY, think about that for a while. How can anybody try, either you do or you don’t!
This is a poor word because it implies failure or a C.Y.A. (cover your assets) or an out for you.
If you meet your friend and that friend says let’s have lunch tomorrow and you say, sounds good, “I’ll try.” Tomorrow arrives, your friend is at the restaurant waiting for you and you never show. In your friend’s mind you lied to him because you did not hold up your end of the plan. Later that afternoon your friend calls and asks why you never showed up for lunch and you say, “I tried.”
Here is another example, you set your goals for the year and one of your goals is to make a million dollars by the end of the year. The end of the year is here and you do not have a million dollars and you say, “I tried.” You gave yourself an out for failure, didn’t you?
CAN’T is another word to take out of your vocabulary. Can’t never did anything so remove it NOW!
Have you ever asked someone to do something for you and they responded by saying, I can’t? What did they really mean? Did you ask them what they meant by saying I can’t? Probably not.
Whenever someone tells you “I can’t,” you should ask them this: when you say I can’t do you mean you don’t know how to or you don’t want to? If they say they don’t know how to, you NOW have information you can use to continue. They can learn how to do what wanted them to do. If they say they don’t want to, you ask them what is it that keeps you from wanting to do what you ask them to do and move on from there. If they respond with I don’t know, they are just wasting your time.
Many people use the next word and they don’t even realize they are hurting themselves by using this word. Many people get into trouble because they have a big BUT! You did notice the spelling is with one T and not two T’s. You may have a big but in your life and that big but keeps you from getting what you want.
Your “but” negates everything prior to it. Here are some examples:
I want to be successful, but it takes a lot of work.
I want to healthier, but it means eating right and working out.
Any place you use but you need to replace your but with and. Get the but out of there. By replacing your but with and, you will change your mindset on everything.
Going back to the first sentence, read it with and.
I want to be successful and it will take a lot of work.
The second sentence.
I want to healthier and it means eating right and working out.
Notice the difference, we went from a negative to a positive in our speaking and it created a different mindset.
You NOW have some food for thought and you NOW know you must work at not using the three words. It is now time to program your subconscious mind to get rid of using those three words.
The subconscious mind takes in information very well when someone speaks and it processes the information it just received. Having said that, it is now time for you to say out loud these lines:
I remove the word “try” from my vocabulary. Guess what, you have just programmed your subconscious mind to remove “try.”
Now, say this: I remove the word “can’t” from my vocabulary. Your subconscious mind is programmed to remove the word “can’t.”
One more, say I remove the word “but” from my vocabulary. Congrats, you have programmed your subconscious mind to remove “but” from your vocabulary.
Right now you may be thinking this is all a bunch of B.S. I know how you feel and many people have felt that same thing and here is what they found. They discovered that they were able NOT to use those words once they had their subconscious mind programmed to get rid of those words.
The mind is a powerful instrument and we only know a small portion of it’s potential. When you are ready and want to do better, program you mind to do better and let it work for you. You will be amazed.
