Effective Communication is key. What
you say to yourself and others; what others say to themselves and you;
What you both understand about what you’re communicating is the key to
great rapport. This determines whether you have a great personal or
business relationship.
The
evidence that you have communicated effectively is measured by the
response you get from the person you’re communicating with. There really are no unreasonable and resistant people, only inflexible and ineffective communicators
If you communicate effectively and right you will get the right response you want. You get what you deserve based on your communication. To
survive and succeed in your personal life and career, you need
effective communication skills. This is because almost everything about
your life and career involves interacting with people; friends,
colleagues, even in your relations with your bosses and superiors.
How
can you even get a girlfriend, boyfriend or job without proper
communication? How can you be a great pastor, leader, father, mother,
teacher or anything in like without effective communication skills?
Dialogue Not Monlogue
Effective
communication is a dialogue not a monologue. It is about understanding
each other at many depths and levels. It’s not as simple and natural as
many think.
“The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place.” – George Bernard Shaw
“To
effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in
the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to
our communication with others.” – Tony Robbins
“The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn’t said.” – Peter Drucker
“The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives” – Tony Robbins
“The
two words ‘information’ and ‘communication’ are often used
interchangeably, but they signify quite different things. Information
is giving out; communication is getting through”. – Sydney J. Harri
