Communicating
Your WHY Statement To Others
When you make a commitment to create a
truly powerful WHY statement, it is a good idea to share it with other people
in your social circle. You can share your new personal WHY statement with your
family members, your close friends, your employer and anyone else that is
important to you in your life.
Some people are not going to know what a
WHY statement is and why you have bothered to create one. Explain to everyone
that you have now found your true life purpose and that you intend to stand by
your WHY statement from now on.
Sharing
Provides Accountability
By sharing your WHY statement with the
important people around you will make yourself accountable and more motivated
to live by it. You may not feel that you need this added accountability because
you have a strong will, but you will be surprised how much this can help you to
be the person that you truly want to be.
Not everyone that you share your WHY
statement with is going to hold you accountable. Some of your family members
and friends may not even notice that you have deviated from it. Others may
notice, but then show sympathy to you and say things like “well you tried and
that was the main thing”. This is not going to help you.
Think about who will make a good WHY
statement buddy. This is a person who will truly hold you accountable to your
WHY statement and will let you know in no uncertain terms of you fall of the
rails. They are not going to be sympathetic to any deviances and will give you
a hard time if you do not live by your WHY statement.
Is
it necessary to Share your WHY Statement with everyone?
There are going to be some people in your
circle that just don’t get it. They may even laugh at you for creating a
personal WHY statement and tell you that you have just wasted a lot of time and
effort.
Some people are going to tell you that you
will never live by your WHY statement. They know you very well and feel that
you will deviate from your WHY statement at the earliest opportunity. We all
have these kinds of people in our lives who see the negative in everything.
So should you share your WHY statement with
these people? To be honest only you can answer that question. If you know that
a person is going to hit you with a barrage of negativity when you share your
WHY statement with them then you need to decide if you are going to be able to
handle this.
Some people can handle this kind of
negativity well. It actually makes them even more committed to their WHY
statement. Others will find this negativity difficult to deal with and it may
make them think that they are wasting their time with a WHY statement.
You need to assess what kind of person you
are and how you will react to any negativity. If you think that any negativity
will affect you badly, do not share your WHY statement with these kind of
people.
The truth is you can never totally predict
how people you are close to will react to you telling them about your WHY
statement. Some will be enthusiastic and show encouragement. But others that you
expect the same reaction from may be negative about it. You need to be prepared
for any eventuality.
