Listening, Understanding and Caring

What if the whole point of our existence was learning how to communicate properly?

Not for others to learn how to get on with us, or to understand us, or to communicate with us in a way that we liked.

But for us to learn how to get on with others, to understand them.

For us to learn how to adapt to the environment we are in, and to speak and listen not for our own gain, or to prove a point, or to be right, but for the other person's benefit. 

Imagine how different our relationships would be. Imagine how differently conflict would be handled. Imagine how much nicer we would be to each other, how much more patient, how much more open, understanding and forgiving.

When people know that they will be listened to, without fear of judgement, but able to express honestly about how they are feeling. That is when relationships transform.

In this episode of the podcast, I am sharing a really simple technique to help facilitate highly effective and honest communication - both for the person expressing and for the person listening.
