During this week I took some evaluations and I had my boyfriend and his frat brother to the peer/ colleague evaluations. It was discovered that I have no problem communicating its just how I communicate at times with others. Sometimes I become aggressive when talking to people. If I feel offended by a comment that is made I let the person/persons know that I am. My voice may sometimes raise and my facial expressions show how I may feel without possibly completing sentences.
I am confident when communicating and I make eye contact. Making eye contact show that you are sincere. I am a good listener. Before expressing my opinions I hear peoples views and their opinions. Many people forget to do that when communicating. When you don't listen you miss important points.
My boyfriend and I are just a like when we get into arguments neither one of us will break down. One of us has to get the last word. It doesn't even have to be a heated argument just a small disagreement and he thinks he should be the last to speak whether he is wrong or not.

ReplyDeleteShannon I really enjoyed reading your post. I can also relate in some areas. I can often become agressive if I feel offended by someones comments. I used to be extremely shy and would not say anything. But now there are times when I will really let someone have it. As early childhood professionals, we all have a lot of work to do when it comes to effective communication. Thanks for sharing.
