What could I possibly hope to communicate through artificial media messages if I could not better articulate it in person by talking about it with people? And what could I hope to learn from other people unless I talk <b>with</b> them and listen empathically to gain understanding of what they have to say? I find that most of the best ideas for EmpowerThyself have arisen in conversations with people when we ask questions of each other and come up with answers out of the blue as though we already knew what they would be before we even knew what the question was. </p> <p> I think anyone who wants to communicate things in the world through media should first practice talking about their ideas with as many different kinds of people as possible. This is the surest way to improve your communications and learn from responses. </p> <div class="og_rss_groups"><ul class="links"><li class="first last og_links"><a href="/talking" class="og_links talking">Talking</a></li> </ul></div> http://www.empowerthyself.com/node/2038#comments Talking Fri, 04 Apr 2008 15:31:57 -0400 lxpk 2038 at http://www.empowerthyself.com
