Mastering a Skill

Communication

A skill that most people don’t have and should always have is communication. Communication is interpersonal contact, social interaction, association, and intercourse (Oxford English Dictionary). You can benefit a lot from having good communication skills. Being able to communicate with someone is very important. Without communication, there is no conversation. Communication is the key to getting what you want out of life and preventing unwanted decisions in life.

People will definitely benefit from having this skill. This skill allows you to speak our mind, talk with others (in the correct way), and also get you ahead in life. Let’s focus on the first ability: speaking your mind.

Speaking your mind is very important. Speaking your mind could either help you or break you. It can help you by letting others know the truth about how you may feel about a certain topic or situation. For example, if you have a problem with someone, it would be beneficial to you to let that person know what the problem is. If you don’t let the person know what is bothering you, how are you going to expect them person to read your mind and correct the problem? Exactly, you can’t expect them to figure out something that’s bothering you if you don’t speak up and communicate with that person. The second ability is speaking with others.

Speaking with others is also very important. You can go a long way when you have the ability to speak verses someone who can’t. Having this ability is a blessing. There are so many people in this world that wish they could have that ability to speak, using their mouths verses other ways of communicating. Don’t get me wrong, you can communicate in many ways, but I’m talking about speaking out loud with your mouth. Regardless of which way you communicate to someone, it’s beneficial for you to be heard. People don’t realize that communicating to someone rather than holding your tongue can get a lot of things done in life....
