Please let me know…

Does this phrase look familiar to you? I started using this at the end of every email back in the day, primarily when sending deliverables to clients for review. Then it became a standard part of my PM script.
⠀
And why not? It felt expected of me and my position: open, approachable, and showed I was confident that I could handle the recipient's feedback. But did I actually want their feedback? Was it appropriate for every email I was sending? Why was I cranky when they came back weeks later with paragraphs of feedback for me to address? 🤔 It was more conditioning than anything else, and I was falling back on it rather than carefully curating my message.
⠀
I just caught myself adding this to yet another email. Then I deleted it. 👍 Sometimes questions and concerns of your audience matter, sometimes they don't. Self awareness is the first step. What patterns in your communication are you actively working on? If none, take a closer look at the phrases you use daily, that come most naturally to you and ask yourself if they're still working for you.
