Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, Youtube, etc are popular just because it provides us with the platform to communicate which builds a relationship between people. The more we easily communicate the more we get connected.

We listen to some person very attentively or carefully because that person has great communication skills. He or she understands the situation and act or speak accordingly.

So, today we are going to talk about How to improve communication skills but before starting this we should try to know what communication skill is? Because there are so many myths related to communication skills in my opinion.

WHAT IS COMMUNICATION:-

The word communication is derived from the Latin words 'communicare' which means to share. It is the act of conveying meanings from one entity or group to another through the use of mutually understood signs, symbols, and semiotic rules.

Ways to improve communication skills:-

Good communication skills mean creating an impact on the listener's mind and creating a relation with them.

Communication is not only forcing your thoughts on another it is about understanding the situation, listening, creating emotion, behaving accordingly

There is no perfect trick to improve communication skills, but I am sharing you the most important points of these.

1. Become a Good Listener

Listening plays an important part in communication because a good listener is a good speaker

The secret of becoming a good listener is hidden in the word 'listen' when you jumble you will find listen become 'silent'

So listen silently and carefully

2. Understand the Situation and then Speak:-

Understanding the situation is also a trait of good communication skills. There are some situations where you have only to listen not to speak. So before speaking anything understand whether your interference is necessary or not.

3. Create an Emotional attachment with listener:-

Anything which has an emotion attached in it leaves a great impact. So when you are talking with anyone just try to create an emotional attachment by talking about them because everybody wants to listen about themselves.

In every relation, if emotions aren't attached then it loses trustworthiness and everything, relations remain only for the name. We don't feel it by hurt.

4. Make Eye Contact and Focus on Body Gesture :-

Suppose you have all of the above traits mentioned but you aren't acting accordingly means if someone is talking to you and you are not maintaining face connection or giving inappropriate gesture to them then it gives a negative signal in their mind and they lose interest in talking with you.

So remember when you are talking with someone make average eye contact not much not less with them. It gives the signal that you are interested in their talks and they feel comfortable to talk with you.

5. Interest is the main factor:-

In everything the most important thing is INTEREST. It doesn't matter how well you are in communication skills if the person you are talking with isn't interested in you then nothing will work.

So, first of all, you have to develop an interest in the person's mind by giving examples through which they can relate with or anything according to their personality which suits them or they love to listen.

SUMMARY:-

I have discussed all of the traits to improve communication skills but besides these, there are so many factors on which you have to work on and you have to discover all these traits.

How to react in any situation? How will we know it? We will know if we listen to it silently, understand it and then we realize whether we should speak more or less or we should keep quiet.

There are unlimited possibilities in any situations and in those possibilities, the possibility which is best or near to best starts to happen automatically then we can say that we have good communication skills.

Communication is all about understanding other person. Not about winning an argument or Forcing your opinions on others.
