In this conference, Susana de los Reyes teaches us how to communicate.

Do we have a communication or relationship problem?

Taking this question as a starting point, Susana shows us how to learn to communicate, addressing issues such as self-esteem, emotions or the meaning of life.

To improve communication, learning to communicate with others and interpersonal relationships, it is important to practice social skills such as active listening, clearly expressing thoughts and feelings, being empathetic and understanding, and resolving conflicts constructively. It is also useful to work on self-awareness and self-esteem to improve self-confidence and social interactions.

We have a communication problem because we do not know how to relate to others.

To improve communication and interpersonal relationships, it is important to practice social skills such as active listening, expressing thoughts and feelings clearly, being empathetic and understanding, and resolving conflicts constructively. It is also useful to work on self-awareness and self-esteem to improve self-confidence and social interactions. If the problem persists, it may be beneficial to seek the help of a therapist or counselor for additional guidance and support.

We do not know how to communicate because emotions dominate us.

If emotions are affecting the ability to communicate effectively, it is important to learn to recognize and manage them in a healthy way. This may include strategies such as practicing emotional self-awareness, identifying emotional triggers, and managing stress and anxiety. It is also helpful to learn to express emotions constructively and to listen empathetically to the emotions of others. The help of a therapist or counselor can also be beneficial in learning to manage emotions and improve communication.

Why do we get carried away by our emotions?

We are driven by our emotions because they are a natural and important part of our human experience. Emotions provide us with information about ourselves, others and the world around us, and help us make important decisions in life. Often, emotions are an automatic response to certain stimuli or situations, and can be difficult to control or regulate in the moment.

However, it is important to remember that although emotions are an important part of our lives, they should not be the only guide for our actions and decisions. It is important to learn to recognize and manage emotions effectively so that they do not dominate us and we can make conscious and healthy decisions.

The Importance of Self-Esteem when Communicating

Self-esteem and communication are closely related, as the way we communicate with others can have a significant impact on our self-esteem. In addition, self-esteem can influence our ability to communicate effectively with others.

When we have good self-esteem, we feel more confident and self-assured, which allows us to express ourselves more clearly and confidently. On the other hand, if our self-esteem is low, we may be afraid to communicate our ideas or feelings to others, which can limit our ability to establish meaningful and satisfying relationships.

Communication can also affect our self-esteem negatively if it is not done effectively. If we are not able to express our needs or desires in a clear and respectful manner, we may feel frustrated and misunderstood, which can undermine our self-esteem. On the other hand, if we do not know how to listen and respond to the needs and desires of others, we may feel insecure and unable to establish healthy relationships.

To improve both self-esteem and communication, it is important to be aware of our own needs and feelings, as well as those of others. It is important that we learn to communicate clearly, respectfully and effectively, and to listen carefully to others to understand their needs and desires.

Self-esteem and communication are closely related and can influence each other significantly. By improving our ability to communicate effectively and build a healthy self-esteem, we can establish more satisfying relationships and have a fuller and happier life.

Here are some generic best practices for communicating better:

Active listening:

Listening carefully to the other person is essential for good communication. We must pay attention to what they say, without interrupting and without judging, and let them know that we are listening.

Speak clearly and respectfully:

We must communicate our ideas, needs and feelings clearly and respectfully. It is important to choose the right words and avoid personal attacks or destructive criticism.

Ask and clarify:

If we are not sure what the other person means, we can ask questions to clarify the situation. In this way we avoid misunderstandings and can better understand your needs and desires.

Be assertive:

Being assertive means expressing our thoughts and feelings directly and honestly, without attacking or being attacked. Assertiveness is fundamental to communicate effectively and establish healthy relationships.

Avoid distractions:

When we are talking to someone, we should avoid distractions such as the cell phone or television. We must pay attention to the other person and let them know that they are important to us.

Learn to read non-verbal signals:

Many times nonverbal communication, such as body language and facial expressions, is as important as the words that are spoken. We should pay attention to these signals to better understand what the other person is trying to communicate.

Don’t believe anything you just read, experiment and think for yourself.
