In this episode, we’ll talk about the transformative power of clarification in communication and how assumptions and defensive modes often hinder effective communication. Get to the root misunderstanding and the unconscious filters that influence our interactions with me.
Key Takeaways:
- Making Assumptions – The first automatic behavior we engage in when communicating is making assumptions. When we listen to others, we often have preconceived notions, catching only parts of what is said and forming assumptions from these fragments, usually negative.
- The Power of Clarification – Communication is essential to human interaction, however, we often neglect the need to clarify not only what we are hearing but also ensuring that the other person comprehends what we are trying to say. Hence, when communication isn’t clear, assumptions take over.
- Practice Clarification – Clarifying communication is not just a one-time effort but a continual practice. When we practice clarification, we create opportunities to deepen our understanding of others and ourselves.
Helpful Resource:
- How do you clarify? – One way to reduce misunderstandings is through clarification. Clarifying what we hear and say can help bridge the gap between our intentions and the other person’s understanding.
Notable Highlights:
“We tend to assume the worst before we assume the best, we’re conditioned in our society to think of the worst case scenario.”
“The unconscious mind’s highest prime directive is to protect and preserve the body.”
