Practice Talking

It is the best way to solve things out.

I have definedly come to the conclusion that most of the dissapointments and misunderstanding between people is because they dont communicate enough. Being in the same page is important, but letting someone else know what page are you in is also good. Explaining your point of view, listen to the others. You might not come to a meeting point, and understanding, but at least you know why the other is acting the way he does. Why people do the things they do. Getting to know the background and the reasons for a choice, timing, enviroment…there are so many variables…and explaining a decision is as simple as listing the facts.

I talked with my college and it went well. Before i had this conversation, i talked with my boss, and he opened my eyes, or i’d better say, show me a part that was kept hidden to my eyes and that i didnt realize it existed. Nevertheless, i had a conversation with my college to share and let him know what i expected of him, why and how. This might not change his way of behaving (i doubt it), but at least he knows where i stand.

At the same time, he explained himself to me, and no i understand him better than before. Another pair of glasses to see life. Different from mine, but also as good.

I guess after a talk, our working relationship is stronger than before and i couldnt recommend anything else for those of you who are having a rough time with someone else but to talk with that other person, explain yourself and be ready to listen openly. some understanding is never a thing people have too much of these days…
