How often do
you spend time thinking about what to say back to a person AS they are speaking ..........instead of listening to them attentively?
Do you speak
without thinking?
Someone who
has good communication skills listens attentively when someone else
speaks.
They also demonstrate body language that show others that they are
listening to them.
Another
skill is to take time to think before you speak. Just don’t do it while someone
is speaking to you. Wait and listen and then take time to think before you
respond.
If you are upset when communicating, it is best to tell the other person(s) that you would like to step away for a few moments to gather your thoughts. Take deep breaths and focus on responding respectfully and not of out negative emotions.
When you care about someone, it is important to ALWAYS treat them with respect in your communication!
