INTRODUCTION:
Welcome to this motivational moment entitled, “Communication is the Key.” I’m Cynthia O.
MOTIVATION:
I recently pondered how important communication is to our success throughout life. Nevertheless, we all know that communication can go wrong when not handled properly. And when it does, those involved are often left feeling confused, hurt, angry, or misunderstood. I’ve found that, as vital as communication is to our very existence, many of us do not do it well. You see, effective communication often requires just as much listening as it does speaking. But, unfortunately, our primary goal during a conversation, particularly during a disagreement, is often to be heard. But, when we take time to listen, we learn. We learn about the person or people who we’re communicating with. We also create, nurture, and strengthen our relationships. And, hopefully, we become more open to others’ perspectives. So, especially in our most difficult interpersonal interactions, lets communicate with intentionality, thoughtfulness, and respect. We may still have to agree to disagree, but we will have treated each other with value. Because we must remember that life is richer when we have strong relationships.
