Communication is key

Regardless of your chosen path in life, the ability to be successful is directly related to your ability to communicate effectively. Communication involves a message being sent AND received. Sometimes, we ignore the way in which we send the message assuming that it is being received as it was intended. Think about how you want to be heard, and consider your "audience" when you speak. They may be trying to listen, but just don't have the tools to listen effectively, or they don't have the context with which to listen to your message. Read the following group of words as quickly as possible: Isle of dogs. The context of the three words is not what is likely interpreted by whomever hears you read the words as quickly as possible. Just keep this in mind when you are trying to communicate, and the message is not being received- regardless of how clearly you "think" the message is being delivered.
