Well, how to explain that when a person has all his senses functioning normally but he is not able to convey a message or understand others? Is this communication an ability that people should really concern about? Sometimes the barrier of communication comes from the external factors such as language, whereas most of the time the reason that affects a person from communicating effectively is from internal. Such factors may be emotions, lack of subject knowledge or even stress. You may not possibly be able to listen to your mother’s words when you are under the stress of the examination.
How do we solve these problems during communication? A good way of starting this is to use simple words to convey message in order to avoid misunderstanding. Apart from that, one must learn effective listening, that is, listen attentively and proactively. Listening is actually a two-way communication. When two persons are communicating with each other, an effective process of interpersonal communication will require the use of asking questions while the other person is speaking. One last thing might be trying not to put your negative emotions into the communication while expressing yourself or listening to others.
