Communicate with Intention
The Intention is a strong sentence, which informs how you deliver your message to achieve your objective. Photo Credit: Careertipster.com
When it comes to communication, we think it’s only for professional with professional work, but in reality, it’s a wrong interpretation because communication skills are very important to every human being and to some parts of the human body e.g. brain.
We communicate with others with the aim of sharing something with them so that we can receive feedback that may work for us. Through communication, we can send information to different people and expect to get something back but things change the time you communicate with someone and you are finding yourself with nothing back even though you were expecting some feedback.
There are some reasons why that happens but first understand this, when you want to communicate, you have to consider and understand who you are communicating with and with what intention, doing that will better prepare your mind to receive any kind of feedback either its negative or positive so at the end of the day you are happy with what you have communicated and you already shared your intention.
This is how we can communicate effectively with an intention and get the results we want.
Communicating with Other People
First, understand this,
There is no such kind of a single text known as “Hi” “Mambo” or “Hello” it’s a time-wasting text.
It is really boring for the first time you find someone is texting you a single text like Hi, Mambo, Hello or even text your name and you may find that it’s a new number and for the first time and that person sitting there with confidence expect to receive a reply back, when he or she gets nothing then is where you will find them saying someone is just like this you may text him or her and never get a reply.
My dear why can’t you communicate what you really need in your single Hi text and get things done? You may find some of these people they are busy doing their things then you are just sitting there waiting for someone to text you a “Hi” text back, its time wasting, maybe if you know that person or you are sharing the same thinking or both of you don’t have anything to do with your life rather than wasting each other time.
Communicating with Yourself
There is a time we face difficulties in life instead of helping ourselves to get out of that situation; we choose to use that kind of situation to keep us down. Some do this consciously or unconsciously but also it doesn’t matter you are the same person. In communicating with yourself is more about managing your self-talk, the way how you talk to yourself through your thinking and thoughts inside your mind.
It’s clear that you are in control with everything in your life but still you let situations, people and events define who you are, by doing that you will find yourself in a negative mode and start communicating with your brain in a negative way too, like I am not good enough, I can’t do this, I don’t have enough education, I am not a genius, e. t. c.
We have enough in life against us already. Don’t be against yourself.
If you are doing this in your life, I wish one day you will understand even in our self-talk we have to monitor that communication in a positive direction, in a positive way, it will give you power and you will find yourself that you are enough and perfect just like the way you are.
Communicating with Kids
This is just an addition but let me share with you the secret on how you may communicate with kids who don’t understand what you really mean the first time you tell them something.
Kids are magical and they understand things very quickly when it comes to learning but what makes them repeat the same mistake or the same thing that you told them to not do it because “you cannot tell your brain what to not do”(E.g. Don’t think of an Apple). The more you keep telling kids don’t do this, don’t do that… guess what is like you are telling them the exact opposite
Communicate with intention even with your kids or kids around you. If you want to deliver a certain message to them just be direct instead of telling them what to not do, it will be much easier and they will adopt that. Communicating with them with one intention they will be able to catch that and understand you well, so instead of telling them don’t sit down and sit on the couch, tell them to sit on the couch, don’t drink soda and drink water, tell them to drink water… try this today and you will be shocked by the results kids will never let you down.
It’s my hope that you learn something new today :)
