MUDDY WATERS ( Effective Communication) A vital part of effective communication, has been clearly defined over and over again, as not just hearing, but listening. In order to communicate effectively. One must be clear on what one hears. That way they don’t carry a conversation about what they assumed. Muddy waters (miscommunication) only stems to cloud a discussion, and does nothing to help resolve anything. The sad part is; the one who was not listening, often wants to put blame on others. For not being clear, or; for not talking loud enough to hear. Maturity says; if one is not clear enough. Ask them to elaborate. If one is not loud enough. Ask them to speak up. If you don’t ask, then you don’t know. B- m----- e----- t- a-- w--- n-- s---. W--- t- a--. F------ n-- t-. I- i- f------ t- f------- o-- a---------. E. V. SIMS |
