Improving Our Communication Skills
No need to say anything, just listen, just be interested
Be encouraging listener, find interest of the people and then talk a little bit about their interest, don't interrupt, don't look into phone, genuinely attend
Find something there to be appreciated
Ask thoughtful questions
Body language plays great role; when we are nervous, we close our arms, legs, squeeze ourselves
Pay attention
Don't look around
Genuine smile
Emotions are created through motions, physical or facial; chin up
As dietitian; ask what they eat and appreciate them and then suggest
Rephrase, rephrase your criticism (avoid, avoid)
It's all in the name
Actively use their name in the chat, acknowledge them; to build connection
Like a moth to a flame
We can condition our mind even fake. List strengths, achievements, gratitude, positivity; when the other person is constantly negative
A Measure of Courage
Vulnerability is not a sign of weakness and can be your greatest strength.
“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it’s having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage,”.
Vulnerability is a double-edged sword. Those who protect themselves to avoid getting hurt, fail to appreciate intimacy and close relationships.
Everyone is vulnerable, no matter how much they try to avoid it. We are born vulnerable and stay that way for our entire childhood. Our relationship with vulnerability is something we are acquainted with, yet abandon as we merge into adulthood.
