How to Communicate

Well read three chapters in this book the ones on Body Language and Expressing yourself. A lot to learn I will re-read the body language one. It was fairly long and a lot to comprehend.

The expressing yourself one talked a lot about being direct. Because people won't understand you otherwise which is pretty much common sense. But I have trouble doing this with topics that I am worried about but I hint around them and try to avoid being direct. Or I tend to channel my expressions through a 3rd Party and the book says avoid that because your not being direct and if that 3rd Party tells the other person it may not be delivered like you should have done it and could mess things up.

But I tend to be afraid to be direct cause I am either trying to proect myself from being hurt or avoiding hurting someone else. But I would rather be told straight up to avoid confusion. But I can't seem to do that myself unless confronted but this book says to avoid that.

I am thinking you get one chance at life and should just be direct and clear. It's good advice but if I don't take it what good is it. I sometimes worry that I lose a lot of opportunties because of reasons like this. But this book also had this to say "No one wants to hear about your anger, disappointment or even your love secondhand"

See has lots of good advice and ways to put it into play. I just need to finish it. =)
