ecoTrain: QOTW SEASON 6 - COMMUNE-ICATION

It's a new week again and I have decided to start with the QOTW by the ecoTrain community.

Seeing the topic, we would see how it is splitted "COMMUNE" then "ICATION".

To commune according to the English Dictionary means "To converse together with sympathy and confidence; to interchange sentiments or feelings; to take counsel."

Communication is a skill involving two or more people who come together to deliberate, share opinions, argue together etc. In our everyday lives, we practice this communication skill as we get along with others. Let me also say this, there are two types of communication; Interpersonal and Intrapersonal.

Interpersonal communication is the one involving two or more people. This can be among friends, co-workers, acquaintances, strangers and so on.

Communication in this area is very important and one must be able to learn how to communicate with others to achieve a meaningful result at the end. There are so many ways we communicate among ourselves.

We communicate in the market when we are negotiating price of goods, we communicate when we need to come together to achieve a goal at work, we communicate together as students in solving a problem in the classroom and so on.

There is need for smooth communication and how to interact and cope with others. Communication with people around us is very difficult most times and one need to be careful in dealing with people outside the world. We all have individual differences and so many people can term a particular word to be in another way. With good communication, you will learn how to engage with others, cope with them and get your goals achieved.

We communicate through different styles;

  • Touching
  • Waving
  • Signal
  • Non verbal
  • Verbal etc

Also, in communication, different areas are to be met and taken cognizance of, which are;

  • Listening
  • Studying
  • Speaking

I was in a discussion with my mates in school and we discussed about communicating in different areas. Then we touched the area of selling goods in the market. We argued over a particular area where someone said "I will only do as I want with my goods. When a customer comes to me, I would have placed a price tag on my goods, and if he or she isn't satisfied, then they leave".

I laughed and said "Do you know you already communicated already? The price tag on your goods is a means of communicating to your customers and if you do not act nicely, they leave and you lose customers". He laughed and we ended it.

The truth is, if we don't communicate verbally, we have other different ways through which we communicate with each other and our message is passed across to such person. Then, another area where it won't flow well is when you aren't using the right mode of communication at the right time, it will be very difficult for one to grasp what you are trying to say. You need to understand what works best for someone before you communicate to such person.

INTRAPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

This kind of communication is with you alone. This kind is done when you soliloquy, you are talking to yourself alone, you kept speaking to yourself in positive and negative way. This way, communication only takes place with you alone. Most times, we feel we have lost all, we feel all hope is lost and then we start wailing and blaming ourselves- this is a negative communication with yourself. The positive one is when you appraise yourself or something you did and got a good result. So, therefore communication exist with yourself and other people around you.
Thank you for reading.
