Five Ways to Improve Communication Skills
Communication is one of the most important skills we can ever learn. It affects everything that we do —whether we're communicating at work to meet deadlines and achieve results, or communicating with friends, family and partners to build strong relationships. Thus communication is very important. Here are five ways to improve your communication skills.
This reflects a real lack of respect. By interrupting someone, what you're basically saying is "I don't care what you're saying—what I have to say is more important".
Don't finish other people's sentences.
Wrong. Research has shown by doing this you are dis-empowering (剥夺权利) the other person because you are taking control of the conversation, so bite your tongue!
Paraphrase.
If you want to show that you have really understood someone, then paraphrasing (解释) is a great tool Here's an example: "So Barney, what I'm hearing is that results are the number one objective for you right now and we need to find some fast solutions for you?"
Focus on active listening instead of passive listening. The difference is that active listening means you engage with and respond to the other person based on what he/she has said, while passive listening is simply the act of listening with no response.
Maintain eye contact.
By looking at the other person in the eyes, you are proving that you're interested in what he/she is saving.
A. All you do is repeat back to someone what he/she has just said, before you comment yourself.
B. You don't see them interrupting others or leaving off mid conversation.
C. Listen actively.
D. This also keeps you focused (集中) and less distracted (分散).
E. Talk actively.
F. I used to do this a lot thinking I was helpfully finishing people's sentences for them.
G. Never interrupt people.
Life is just like a box. Inside it are happiness and sorrow, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in it teach us new lessons and make us a better person.
Love
Love plays a key role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel and violent. In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with unconditional love and care. They tell us what is right or wrong, good or bad. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}.It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands and becomes sensitive to the feelings of others. Kids make a person responsible and mature and help us to understand life better.
Happiness and Sorrow
Materialistic happiness is shortlived, but happiness achieved by bringing a smile on others gives a certain level of fulfillment. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}.No mind is happy without peace. We realize the true worth of happiness when we are in sorrow. Sorrow is basically due to death of a loved one, failure and despair. But these things are temporary and pass away.
Failure and Success
{#blank#}3{#/blank#}.It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way.
Hope and Despair
Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}, because after every night there is a day. Nothing remains the same. We have only one choice—keep moving on in life and be hopeful.
Life teaches us not to regret over yesterday, for it has passed and is beyond our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be right or dull. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow.
A. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour B. So the only alternative is work hard today C. But we always tend to take this for granted D. Success lies in trusting yourself E. So let's enjoy every day F. Failure is the path to success G. Peace of mind is the main link to happiness |
I do think that dieting does not work. What it does do is to make you uneasy about food. Imagine you are prepared to abandon your belief and imagine yourself like a slim person...how do you get there?
{#blank#}1{#/blank#}Focus on what you really want, not what you don't want. Imagine how you would like to be. See a big picture of yourself, looking fantastic in your bathing suit, how good would you be feeling?{#blank#}2{#/blank#}
Slim people eat based on how hungry they are and when lunch time or tea time or dinner time around; they don't just fill up their plate because the food is there. The next time hunger pangs （剧痛） strike, imagine you have a scale in your mind from one to ten. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}Check where you are on that scale before you put something into your mouth. You can also use the scale to judge how full you're getting.
{#blank#}4{#/blank#}
Hunger is the only good reason for eating. Most overweight people have got into the habit of eating when they are not hungry. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Many people have forgotten how to eat when they're hungry and most diets tell you to ignore pleasure and ignore hunger and they also tell you when/how much and exactly what to eat.
A. Recognize real hunger B. Don't watch TV or read books while eating. C. One means you're starving; ten means you're not hungry. D. Slim people eat based on how hungry they feel before a meal. E. Exercise is an efficient way of losing weight. F. Start by believing in yourself as a slim person. G. Get that great confident feeling by creating how you would like to be. |
