Communication & Mutual Problem Solving

Harold B Lee said, "We should communicate not only to be understood, but so clearly that we cannot be misunderstood."

This how communication works.

Thought/Feelings-> encode-> media (words, tone, nonverbal)-> decode -> Thoughts/feelings


When communicating: 14% are words, 35% is out tone, and 51% is nonverbal communication. Knowing this do you need to change the way that you communicate with the people around you?

Nonverbal Communication
 facial expressions
body language
eye contact
clothing choice and color
shoes

There are many many many more forms of nonverbal communication but these are the ones that most people think of right away. Now that you know this, is your nonverbal matching up with your verbal communication? If not, maybe it should. No need to use sarcasm to tell others what you are thinking just do it in a soft kind way.
