THOUGHTS TO PONDER

Communication is something natural to each one of us; how we communicate is where we vary. Be it always remembered that one of the main purpose of this subject is learn how to communicate efficiently. Thus, we must learn varied points of view, to ensure that when we communicate, we do not ruin the message. Remember that communication can make or break relationships. Another thing, to which point of view a story is told is what makes it worth paying attention to. Thus, learning varied points of view is like listening to the different sides of a story. In other words, be open-minded.
