Let’s talk about communication
"Effective communication" is a buzz word in psychology and self development literature. A quick Google search on effective communication resulted in about 74,600,000 results in 0.63 seconds - yes that is 74 million plus results!
Clearly this is something that we human beings care about and are concerned about.
At some level, we know that communication is what connects us to others of our species. We can sense that we can meet our human need for connection if we can be understood by, and in turn, understand those who matter to us.
The impact of our communication skills, of course, goes way beyond intimate relationships. In the workplace, in the community, in leadership roles and in the world, our effectiveness as a human being depends greatly on our ability to communicate with others.
Something that is so intrinsically tied to our success and wellbeing should just come naturally, right?
Turns out that while the ability to communicate is a God-given gift, the ability to communicate well or effectively is something that we must learn and practice.
Many many of us (dare I say most of us?) struggle with both understanding and being understood by others.
The good news is that communication skills are relatively simple to learn.
So for the rest of this month, let us chat about communication and how we can become effective at it, shall we?
