Michael:

Welcome back to “Irresistible Communication”.

2

:

Two minutes, twice a week.

3

:

No nonsense advice on

leadership communication.

4

:

Right now, nothing is

more important than you.

5

:

That's the feeling that great

communicators will give you.

6

:

Not only in one-on-one

conversations, but also on the

7

:

stage and even in their writing.

8

:

Right now, nothing is

more important than you.

9

:

Which is not to be confused with:

never is anything more important.

10

:

The point is that right in

this moment, nothing is.

11

:

These communicators let us forget

that they are just as busy as we

12

:

are, they juggle just as many balls

as we do, and there they might have

13

:

sucked big time and their lunch

break is already one hour late.

14

:

But right now?

15

:

None of that matters.

16

:

They are super busy, sure.

17

:

But right in this moment,

they are also fully present.

18

:

That doesn't mean that they necessarily

leave everything aside for us.

19

:

We're not the center of

their focus all the time.

20

:

In fact, they might not

even have much time for us.

21

:

But when they do, when they choose to

spend their time with us, they are fully

22

:

committed and present in the moment.

23

:

Sometimes, you could even say

that the feeling is not so much

24

:

one of being the most important

person in their world right now.

25

:

It can almost feel like you're

the only one that matters.

26

:

Now, how focused are you on

the person you're talking to?

27

:

Keep lighting the path and

share this with a friend.
