Speaking From the Heart

Speaking From the Heart

I am usually very good at communicating and I tend to be able to speak to every person or group from they would understand, based on beliefs and such. Even though I am good at this I was stretched a couple of weeks ago. I had a group from Japan to come and take a 2 day seminar with me. The interpreter could only come the second day. The workshop was an in depth workshop about over soul, soul, spirit and multi dimensions.

It was truly a stretch my first day. I truly wanted from my heart for them to really get it so I took whatever it took to get it across until I was sure they understood. Through many tools for examples, animation and darn near charades, I got it across and they did get it. Whenever they would finally get an AHA moment I raised my arms in the air and said Ching Ching, lol. By the end of the class they were doing it themselves. I realized the reason I did get through is because I truly wanted to from my heart. This made we wonder how many times we do this daily with people all around us we love?

Do we really reword, animate or do whatever we need to in order for someone we love to truly understand what we are saying or feeling? Many times we fall in the habit; they know me or should know me by now so they know what I mean. We all have different definitions for words. Love, happiness, struggle and so forth most times mean differently to each individual. This is because our definitions are based on how we grew up and all of our past experiences. A struggle of a sort could seem minor to one person where another it would be a great hardship. So how often do we really make sure the other person REALLY knows what we are feeling and saying?

I know that I had this experience because I have been studying communications for years now and am in the process of developing a communication workshop. This experience has only stretched and enhanced my view for more great things to add to it. I feel blessed and grateful for this insight.
