I was asking for a change. For a couple of months. I finally asked “Do you really have any intentions of ...”
The question is to the point. Not emotional. Just to the point. Instead of that I could have said a lot leading up to the question but I didn’t. It’s straight forward.
I learned to do this when someone hasn’t given a clear answer or when someone says they would do something and never do. I started to ask this a lot.
What’s your real intentions. Deep down are you really going to do what I asked you to do or what you said you would do?
The response was “Of course, I will get it done” after I asked that it was done. It finally got done. After months of me hinting and not being straight forward it I asked one question and it was done.
I learned a lot from that one experience. One question. One situation.
I learned calling people out isn’t to start an argument. It’s not to be lead with emotions. It’s saying be real with me. Don’t BS me just so I shut up or I stop asking. What’s your true intentions means to be real with what expectations I should expect. To be honest if you’re going to get something done or just have me think you will.
I won’t lie I was so happy once it was done. It dragged a bit but it finally got done and well being straight forward has always been something I was good at. I had to just learn to leave emotions out prior to it.
