Great minds think alike! Reminds me of a lesson learned in church from your father: "words are like toothpaste out of a tube. Once they are out, they don't easily go back in." Very true, instead of being in such a rush we should all slow down and make sure we are making the right decision. The "measure twice, cut once" mentality.

The concept of a personal filter is terrific, and it sounds like you've had great success using it. Thanks so much for sharing it here.Jay Kuhns, SPHRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813031657500594380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068729084407027179.post-42068605923217571642011-01-24T20:59:31.723-05:002011-01-24T20:59:31.723-05:00My time working with union leaders taught me this,...My time working with union leaders taught me this, and most importantly taught me to run what I was thinking about saying through my personal filter. First,is it sarcastic? They loved to communicate that way, and I think I helped break that chain by not participating that way. Second, does it sound like the company agenda or a management agenda? If it's about the company and not the managers, there is a little more recognition of value. And third, does it move the conversation forward? I don't like to repeat myself, and my kids have taught me that no one likes to hear me repeat the message.<br />That's how I invest the second, and it really only takes about that long.<br />HRiThe HR Introverthttp://thehrintrovert.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068729084407027179.post-38445302384481661872011-01-24T11:30:37.833-05:002011-01-24T11:30:37.833-05:00Thanks William.

I have to continually work at it to make sure I present the way I want to when I deal with difficult issues.Jay Kuhns, SPHRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05813031657500594380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3068729084407027179.post-23986162821311632562011-01-24T07:33:28.260-05:002011-01-24T07:33:28.260-05:00Nice post Jay.

He came across a quote to the effect, "In between stimulus and response lies a gap. In that gap lies one's power to choose a response." He suggests that we absolutely have the power to expand that gap (pause) to respond to anything in a way that is consistent with our values. I would suggest that we always have the ability to pause long enough to quiet unhealthy emotions, and to get to the response that gets us where we want to be. It is simply a choice. But, that doesn't mean that we always act accordingly.William Gouldhttp://www.hrsoot.comnoreply@blogger.com
