Communication. Say what you mean!
The following suggestions are offered to improve your communication with coworkers and patients: 1. Don't use jargon when it isn't necessary. 2. Use feedback when seeking the meaning to a secondary message. 3. Key your messages to the level of understanding the receiver possesses. 4. Always realize your abstracting. 5. Do not always interpret message literally. Yes, in the beginning was the word. But when we interpret all words literally, we miss much of what is really being said. Ultimate meaning and awareness can only take place if we allow our intuition to come into focus. Sometimes it's best to literally "lose your mind" and "come to your senses."
