When you were born, you didnāt have to learn how to breath, hear, taste, smell or cry. We arrive in this world with innate abilities to experience our world. They are natural outcomes of the human condition. Many of lifeās greatest and most memorable enjoyments come from interactions with our senses.
An extension of our senses is the ability to communicate, and the best communication combines what we see, say, and hear. Organized and used effectively, these three senses produce an ability to share and receive information. But there is more to this story. Unlike our ability to hear, communication requires that we learn to listen effectively. Unlike our ability to cry, communication requires that we learn to use language effectively. And, donāt forget the impact of body language. What we see impacts how we process communication.
Said simply, communication is a skill we can learn and improve over an entire lifetime. Organizing our thoughts and presenting them in an understandable form is the foundation for effective written and spoken communications.
Continuous improvement in our communications is possible, so letās examine a few things we can do daily to enhance our skills. Pick a few best practices and introduce them to your daily routine.
