I am a firm believer in constant and open communication. Now I said, I'm a firm believer; I never said I practice constant and open communication. This is what I strive for everyday. I struggle with communicating my wants, my dreams, my goals in life. I will find my voice, I must find it or I will always be lacking.
Movement, objects, speech, and words.
We communication through gross symbols.
We call them "objective,"
But we cannot escape our point of view.

That's a great goal. I think one of the missing components in our communication is really polished listening. How well do we hear. How well do we really invite another into our confidence. I think this really greases the wheel for great communication.
Excellent point, Chuck. What's the saying, "Are you listening to your listening" or something like that. I'm actually a better listener than communicator. People always want to talk to me when they are having problems. Ask me for advice, etc. Funny that.
Listening skills is one of the things I teach. Teaching it is a doddle, practising it is another matter - especially when it comes to my daughters
Zombie - Haha, I actually thought of using that exact wording as the title!
I've been trying to be a better listener hoping it will make me a better communicator. I'm not doing too well though. :(
I LOVE the quote!

If you forget about the past and future, this goal will be easier to attain.

HMT - Easier said than done, but you're right. Thanks for stopping by.
