Here are my five tips for becoming fluent in Coaching Business Writing:
But guess what? My Danish quickly progressed to “good enough,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],” and I was fluent within a year.
2. Coach yourself. Reframe all those self-limiting beliefs and negative mindsets you have about writing and your ability to write.
(And always listen to your mother when she tells you it’s impolite to say you’re full.)
I speak two foreign languages – French and Danish. It took me 17½ years to become fluent in French. It took me one year to become fluent in Danish. Why the difference?
What the heck does this have to do with writing and coaching? Just this.
A word to the wise. If you are speaking a foreign language, do not directly translate from English into that foreign language. It will get you in trouble every time. This is the voice of experience talking.
When you’re learning a foreign language (like Coaching Business Writing),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], good enough is just that – good enough. It sure as heck beats not writing at all. You can’t communicate with your target market if you don’t write. You can’t connect with your prospective clients if you don’t write.
Lucky for me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I eventually ended up living in a French-speaking country and was forced to use my “good enough” French that – lo and behold – eventually became fluent.
And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just like everything else you do as a coach and a business owner,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], with practice your writing goes from good enough to fluent. But nobody speaks French, Danish,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or Coaching Business Writing perfectly. So don’t even bother trying.
And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], no, it never became perfect because perfect isn’t possible. Not even the Parisians speak French perfectly. Ooh la la,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]! I’m going to get some grief for that one,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]!
When I moved to Denmark and it was time to learn Danish,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I had learned my lesson with the French. So I spoke my really awful Danish from the first day I arrived in the country. Only the kids understood me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and they did a lot of laughing.
1. Get clear on who you’re writing to, why you’re writing to them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and what you’re writing to them about.
Okay. I’ve got to go now. I’m off to my Italian class. I’m still at the awful stage but plan to be fluent any day now.
Because I spent most of my time learning French in an American classroom where I was so self conscious about not speaking “perfect” French that I hardly ever opened my mouth.
3. Let go of your self-consciousness, get out your pen or computer,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and write.
Uh oh. I could tell from the quick glances sideways and the grins quickly suppressed that I had said something wrong yet again.
4. Be content with good enough (for right now). Your audience will appreciate that you are making the effort to connect with them and speak their language.
It turns out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when my hostess had offered me more salad,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I had said in French, “No, thank you. I’m pregnant.”
“No, thank you. I’m full.”
While I’m busy butchering the Italian language,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], share the biggest faux pas you ever made in a language – foreign or otherwise.(Keep it clean, please!)
5. Remember, practice doesn’t make perfect but it does make fluent. If you want to become fluent in Coaching Business Writing, you’ve got to write.
