Communicating to be Heard

When we really communicate, two (or more) people are involved. The other person must really hear and understand what we say in order for there to be true communication. Although we can’t control another’s response, we can do things to optimize the chances of getting a good one. A little self-control and forethought can go a long way toward producing a successful “meeting of the minds.” Even if we don’t get the response we are hoping for, we can sleep well knowing that we have done what we can, and done it well!
