What words can you say that will make people want to take action?
A conversation I had with my daughter the other day.
One day, when I was about to go to bed, my daughter said,
・Daughter: “I’m going out tomorrow, so give me the money.”
・Me: "..." (silent)
I could have given her money, but I didn't see her the next morning, so I didn't.
A few days later, I heard from my wife that my son wanted to go to the batting center.
(By the way, my son is a member of a strong baseball team called Urawa Seniors, and practices hard every weekend. During his youth baseball days, he was an outstanding player and a central player, but in the senior team, which is full of strong teams, he doesn't have much of a presence.) there is no.)
On the morning of my daughter's high school entrance information session, my son wasn't awake yet, but my wife placed a 1,000 yen bill on the table. I placed it as a batting center fee. Then I said, ``Well, I'll have 1,000 yen, too.'' and put a 1,000 yen bill on the table.
My daughter, who was watching this, clapped her mouth in disgust, saying, "Huh? Why didn't you give it to me?" So I said something.
He said something like, ``Tatsumi (my son) never asked me to give him money. All you said was give him money. What do you think is different? Think about it.''
However, his true intentions cannot be conveyed to his daughter.
"Change Your Word"
