I really liked this graphic that I found here: https://www.thecoachingtoolscompany.com/think-acronym-for-kinder-and-more-effective-communications/
But it’s not the only source for the THINK acronym. This source claims it was created to reduce online bullying, but I believe the idea, and probably the acronym, have been around much longer than that.
Why YSK: we can all benefit from improving our communication skills, and this is one easy way to do that. I think a lot of us want to be kind, and this can help us better achieve that goal. It’s helped me a lot!
“Your bike is getting stolen” might be uninspiring, but talking about how uninspiring that example is is definitely uninspiring too. However, this comment talking about how uninspiring your comment was is also uninspiring. But if anybody calls me out on it, that would probably be uninspiring too.
