MAN UP MISSION...💪
'Mr. Smooth Talker 😎

📬 This week's Man Up Mission is all about polishing your skills on the 'Why + When' method. You don't have to be actively dating to participate; this strategy is effective in a variety of life scenarios.

Recap: The 'Why + When' Method is a tool designed to eliminate miscommunication in your relationships and help set clear expectations for everyone. It’s a simple and easy framework to apply.

📝 Here’s the 3 step plan:

1. Scout:

Begin by pinpointing areas in your life that could benefit from better communication and clarity. It could be in dating, work, social circles or family.

2. Practice: 

Start putting the 'Why + When' method into action 🚀

You don't need to revolutionize all your conversations at once, just start to pay attention to when the opportunity presents itself. Keep it succinct.

Here are some examples:

A) Planning a first date: “Hey Jessica, just wanted to let you know I have a pretty crazy week coming up (got family staying with me from London!), so I'll touch base again on Thursday with some ideas on where we can grab drinks for our date!”

B) Scheduling a work meeting: “Hi Mark, I received all the details. I’ll be finishing up 2 time-sensitive assignments this week, so I’ll touch base again on Wednesday by noon with an update.”

C) Organizing a surprise party: “Hey everyone! Thanks for RSVPing. I’ll be securing the venue over the weekend, so you can expect to hear from me on Monday night with the final details. Can’t wait to see you all!”

3. Reflect: 

Now, every time you give the 'Why + When' method a spin, take a little review time ⏰. Reflect on questions like:

🤔 Did it reduce uncertainty and ease your stress?
🤔 Did it enhance the overall flow of your interactions?
🤔 Did others respond well or show appreciation? 
🤔 Did it eliminate or diminish miscommunications in your life?

And that's it! By adopting this fresh approach to dialogue, you're setting a standard for others to communicate with you at the same level of clarity and respect 😌

We're all about infusing simplicity into your dating life, so as you practice this technique in your daily scenarios, it will soon become second nature. This quest goes beyond getting better at communicating. It’s a journey of personal development, stress reduction, and confidence building.

So dive in, be bold, and watch as your interactions become smoother and your confidence soars.

You got this! 💪
