ethan kross chatter the voice in our head

Some people who stutter, for example, report talking more fluently in their minds than they do out loud. The flow of words is so inextricable from our inner lives that it persists even in the face of vocal impairments. The fact that multiple spiritual traditions have both feared our inner voice and noted its value speaks to the ambivalent attitudes to our internal conversations that still persist today. They called it “deluded thought.” And yet many of these very same ancient cultures believed that their inner voice was a source of wisdom, a belief that undergirds several millennia-old practices like silent prayer and meditation. Around the same time, in the East, Chinese Buddhists theorized about the turbulent mental weather that could cloud one’s emotional landscape. Some even considered these voices demonic.

Early Christian mystics were thoroughly annoyed by the voice in their head always intruding on their silent contemplation.

(TM) Talk About Talk is a registered trademark.Humanity has grappled with the phenomenon of the inner voice since the dawn of civilization. I thought it might be helpful, therefore, to supplement that book with this older book: GETTING TO YES, which really serves as a foundation for negotiatio. I pulled this one in particular because every single client that I talk to has read Never Split the Difference by Chris Voss. This last one, getting to yes, I just want to mention right out of the gates. The 3 books are INFLUENCE by Robert Cialdini, CHATTER by Ethan Cross, and GETTING TO YES by Fisher, Ury & Patton. You’re going to hear a helpful summary of 3 highly relevant books that I recommend for ambitious executives who’re focused on improving their communication skills.

Then I thought, wouldn’t it be great to do a book review – or 2 – or 3 – in an episode? And here we are. I read a lot and I’m ALWAYS happy to give book suggestions. I was inspired to create this episode based on requests I’ve had from clients in 1:1 coaching or in workshops when my clients ask me, Andrea, what communication skills books do you recommend?
