Value : Communication

"The art of listening enables me to support those around me."

Contemplation

When I hear something negative about someone, I am often influenced by it, even if I have only had positive experiences with the person in question.  This brings about a change in my attitude and behavior toward that person.

Application

I need to learn the art of listening to enable me to respond in to right way.  When someone describes another person in a negative light I need to understand what that person was thinking and feeling at the time.  When I do this I will be able to support him without prejudice.

Day 166 Value of Communication.

Day 166

วันที่ 15 มิถุนายน เป็นวันที่ 166 ของปี

Value : communication

"To be economical with words gets things done more easily."

Contemplation

We expend a lot of time and energy in trying to express ourselves.  When we say too much, most of what we say is wasted.  People switch off and stop listening.

Application

A lot can be said in a few words.  When I think carefully about what I need to communicate, I realize I can do it more easily with fewer words.  This saves my time and energy, and that of others.  Other people then become more willing to listen to me, and understand what I need them to do.
