Communication FUNdamentals

Communication is all about relationships

Posted in Articles
Communication is all about relationships!  It's a huge part of your friendships, your parenting and your teaching.  For your children it's also an important part of their being children and learning as students. 
 
Studies have shown that effective communicators have better relationships, closer friendships, do better in school and are generally happier.  Why?  Because they have the ability to relate with others, express their needs and desires, be clear in the classroom and have the confidence to speak up (college if not public school).  They are simply happier because not only are they more confident to speak up about their needs and ideas, but they are effective in persuading others to adopt their ideas and join with them.
 
Activity:
Your activity today is simply to think about all the things you want: good grades?  Close friendships?  A good job?  Advancement in career or business?  A spouse?  Do you have a mission the Lord gave you?  A passion for some cause? 
 
How much more effective would you be if you were articulate and could effectively convey your wishes to those who could help you achieve them? 
 
What steps do you need to take to become an effective communicator?  ...Take them!

About Me

I was raised by two Atheists of Jewish heritage, married a non practicing Catholic and became a non denominational Christian due, in part, to some Amway meetings and a Jehovah's Witness who came to my door. My purple crayon writes with humor and almost always a little out of the lines. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This blog is my creative and fun way of sharing my thoughts on communication skills relating mostly to homeschooling and sharing and defending the faith. It also reveals a bit about how the Lord took this shy Agnostic girl and allowed her to find her voice and her purpose, a zany voice to the Christian community with insight as to what unbelievers need to hear about Christ Jesus. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ DON'T MISS: Tuesday Tips, Misadventures of Foot in Mouth Man, Friday Funnies, Defending the Faith SONdays ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For more creative fun with JoJo you can visit www.ArtofEloquence.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." -Proverbs 25:11
