Table of Contents Introduction Good Communication Is a Natural Skill Expressing Your Views Clearly Proper Communication on Professional Levels Coming across As Wishy-Washy Body Language Smiles Hand Gestures Continuous Interruptions Eye Contact Anger and Frustration Nervousness Enthusiasm and Readiness Authority and Confidence Indifference and Boredom Suspicion and Doubt Lying/Defensiveness Getting Yourself Understood In Good Voice Are You Sure? – Mrs. Doubt “Fact” Shoulder to Weep on Conclusion Authors Bio Publisher Introduction Proper and effective Communication is the Name of the Game today. That is the reason why half of the scriptwriters of boring long winded soap operas have one of the female characters always telling any male character of which she can get hold, “We have to talk.” And she cannot understand why he does not want to talk. There is a psychological reason for this. Most men do not like long acrimonious and recriminating discussions, based on emotions, and they may find themselves in the middle of a loud and noisy argument. This book is going to talk about the world of relationships and how to be an effective communicator, in your professional and personal life. How many times have you picked up a novel, and read about some of the characters, wasting about 186 pages being suspicious about their mate? They would rather brood, and spoil their previously happy life being suspicious, and you see them spending half of the time weeping in their pillow – the man puts a detective on to follow his woman – and here we have a completely soured lemon of a relationship. A little bit of proper communication, at the right time could have set all the doubts to rest. The woman just enjoyed shopping every day at one particular time. She was definitely not indulging in whatever activity the lurid imagination of the writer thought up. And you wasted 2 ½ hours reading a silly sob story, about a misunderstanding which would have cleared up with just a little effective communication known as talking.
