\"The key to effective communication is listening, not talking.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, when we say a leader is a good communicator, we don\u2019t mean that people follow whatever the leader tells them to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Such a person is called a dictator, not a leader. When leaders listen to their people, we call them effective communicators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Listening is the most important factor in effective communication. The second is expressing your opinion clearly but without insisting on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This requires you to let go of your expectation that others have to accept your opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead, simply offer your suggestion or position. This is not an easy thing to do, so we need to be persistent in practicing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"To get rid of anxiety, you simply need to do whatever is provoking your anxiety.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just do it when you want to do it or when you don\u2019t want to do it. Just do it when it is hard to do it or scary to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When we engage in a good deed hoping to be recognized, we eventually lose interest and stop doing it if we don\u2019t get recognized. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, helping others is actually the best way to love yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why? Because when we help others we experience a feeling of worthiness and satisfaction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
