Remember the Ice -- some background on the story.

Remember the Ice is about raising your awareness regarding the use of "(K)notty Words".

Here they are again: Not, Don't, Can't, Won't, Wouldn't, Couldn't, Shouldn't.

The original story, that led to the title of the book, reads as a simple one. Really. Change a sign from negative to positive.

Don't Forget the Ice to Remember the Ice.

Upon further review, it becomes very apparent this is much more than a simple positive message story. And it is so much more. Actually, the story of helping Rick, the manager of the convenience store sell more ice is just the tip of the Iceberg. (And the pun is intended!)

This past July 23rd, Remember the Ice turned 19! Nineteen years of re-framing my written and spoken words to empowering word choice. Hundreds of thousands of times catching myself shifting from a “(K)notty Word” to an empowering alternative.

Since July 23, 1991 @ 10:07 AM, a Tuesday, I have been focused on eradicating the "(K)notty Words" and have been successful. For me, the most empowering words I now use are the Re-Framing Five: Do, Can, Will, Would, Could. The impact of using the new words of choice has played a significant role in the paradigm shifts I have experienced.

And, yes, I would love to hear you got a copy of the book:

• And experienced enhanced relationships because your communication has improved.
• Or, maybe you are in sales and you have experienced a sharp increase because of your new word choice.
• Maybe you just feel better about your self talk.

What ever the case, you have the opportunity to attract more of what you want because you are communicating more effectively.

Empowering Regards,

Bob
