Have you ever heard the phrase “we just can’t communicate”? Most people associate  communication with the ability to read or write well. This might not be the case as you will soon find out.

How many times have you been to the doctor’s office and listen to an educated professional explain something to you that is just meaningless. These people keep asking you , “Do you understand ?”and sometimes out of embarrassment because you don’t want to look like stupid, you tell them, “Yes, I do understand. ”This isn’t a good way to communicate either.

How do we communicate in a positive way to get our points across(使…被理解)? Ask the person you are communicating with if they understand what you just said, if someone is talking to you, then use the statement ,“Just to make Sure That I Understand What You Just Said”and then repeat back your understanding of their conversation. Sometimes just asking a few simple questions and clarifying your understanding can bring great benefits to any communication.

In some countries like Japan for instance , you might find them reading your body language more than the words you are communicating with. Sometimes just by the way someone stands or reacts to something you said, you can get a valuable insight to what the other person means in this conversation. Don’t forget however this  could lead to a misunderstanding also. Again if you think someone is communicating with their body language , try not to assume (假设)that you know for a fact what message they are trying to get across. Always ask them if they understand what you are talking about.

A person is responsible for what he says and to make sure that the other person completely understands the point he is trying to get across. Why not start using some of the simple skills used in this article to help with your communication skill, you will start to see the benefits within a short period of time.
