They're only words. Some believe school-yard taunt: "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me." They're wrong. Words can hurt you in workplace.I'm not referring to caustic ones spoken (or received) tainted with sarcasm, irritation, anger or frustration, carrying an emotional punch. I'm talking about simple, everyday, normal word choices. These words, like black ice, are not an obvious danger at first glance. But, they can impact your results. So, user-beware. Words create impressions, images and expectations. They build psychological connections. They influence how we think. Since thoughts determine actions, there's a powerful connection between words we use and results we get. Think about these two words: spend and invest. Would you like your bank to spend your money or invest it? Since spending implies money is gone, you probably want a bank that invests. Now apply these same words to corporate budgets and see how that influences thinking. Early in my career, I saw budgets as allocated company money I had permission to spend. And I did spend it. I never thought of budgets as investing in company's future until I was given profit and loss accountability for a new department and discovered my flawed thinking. I learned that in order to grow department, I needed to budget with an investment mentality. Shifting words shifted my thinking and my results. Try these words: problem and challenge. Would you rather a boss see your mistake as a problem or as a challenge? It's more than semantics. Problems are fixed; challenges are met. Different words evoke different feelings. I have a more positive frame of mind meeting a challenge than fixing a problem. But a word of caution. I'm not suggesting you play buzz-word game like a colleague of mine who walked into my office saying, "Do I have an opportunity for you." We both knew differently.
