I really enjoyed reading this chapter. I liked the S-TLC concept. I definitely should make some people in my life read this chapter. I like the concept of stopping yourself, then thinking about what is going on. Then listening to what the other person is saying, getting it all in, and then communicating on what you heard and how you feel about what you just heard. Some people very close to me definitely need to know this method. When I try to communicate with some of these people, they are fine until they hear something they don’t like. When they hear whatever it is that they don’t like, they absolutely lose it! They become super combative and then I go crazy on them because they are acting stupid. Well, they don’t think they are acting dumb but they completely are. And what they say doesn’t even make sense! So it results in me getting mad because they are acting dumb, or me just laughing at them for acting they way they are.
Hi Country Girl,
ReplyDeleteI as well enjoyed this chapter very much. This is the one book I really don’t mind reading out of all my other assigned books. I also feel like some people in my personal life should read this chapter as well. I talk about the book all the time and apply it to my life. I think that my coworkers definitely need some chapter four in their life! I think that the S-TLC system is a lifelong system. I have recently used this method after doing the reading, and found out that it really helps to resolve conflicts in a more appropriate manner. Great post country girl!
