You MUST Avoid this Pitfall When Communicating

Do you struggle to feel heard when communicating? 

Is it difficult to get your point across in a discussion? 

These feelings are more common than you think. You are not alone. 

So often in communication, we pay attention to what we’re saying, how we’re saying it, and what we want to say as we’re dialoguing -- with the focus being totally on us. 

However, a common pitfall in communication is thinking that communication is all about us.

The definition of communication is the interchange of thoughts, opinions, or information by speech, writing, or signs. 

The keyword here is interchange. Communication is a two-way street.  

We’re not communicating in a vacuum. Understanding this principle is a primary component of effective communication.  

Check out this short thought below on how to avoid this common pitfall in communicating.
