Simple Words Inspire Profound Changes

I dedicate this episode to the people who teach us with the use of simple words. They can be our actual teachers or they can be friends or even passersby. We can learn from their off-the-cuff remarks. They can transform our ideas and broaden our horizons. We have to know how to listen and then use those words to improve our own lives. We must also accept our role in shaping other people’s lives.

After all, it’s all about communication and this one crucial thing. Listen to find out what you need to know to improve your life and perhaps even find your life’s purpose.

I’d love to hear from you about how someone else’s remarks or comments have changed you. Have you ever overheard a snippet of conversation that inspired you to move, to feel, to act? Did a teacher have a favorite saying or motivational quote? What did you learn from them? What did you teach others? Comment below and let me know.

This Tell Your Story Better episode on building listening skills will provide some additional resources.

Here are my two journal pages that I mention in the episode. I developed this journal as a way to help me organize my thoughts, nurture a state of gratitude, and work towards my ikigai, my life’s purpose.
