The next time you need to have a difficult conversation with someone, look at it as a chance build a bridge with them – a bridge that can help you cross a potential danger area together.
Rather than approaching it as a dreaded task that’s going to be difficult, approach it as a way to deepen your connection.
After all, if you go into a situation expecting it to be difficult or painful, it probably will be.
But if you go into it with eyes that are looking to connect and co-create, you’ll generate positive energy to lead the conversation while building trust.
