Words of life: …THINK!
• Every word you speak matters.
• Something you say may seem
insignificant to you, but to someone else
those words can be life changing.
• When you use your words to lift
someone’s spirit & speak words of life
over them, you are depositing seeds
that will last throughout eternity.
Conclusion
When effective communication occurs, there is a
mutual sharing of ideas and feelings out of which
understanding develops and action is taken.
The greater the agreement between the sender and
receiver regarding the symbols used, the greater the
probability of understanding occurring between the
two parties.
Through effective communication, relationships are
built, trust is established, and respect is gained.
