Good morning!  My name is Lauren and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  More about communication.  I really like this quote.  A lot of the time I think what I am trying to get across is what they are hearing from me.  The thought of good communication, when in fact is is way off, is worse than none at all.  John Powell said, "Communication works for those who work at it."  If you don't try, it won't ever happen.  It is something you have to work on.  I have always thought I had good communication skills, but the more I really look at it, I am good at expressing how I feel and being honest it about it now.  But me listening and really hearing what you say, is the whole other side of communication.  It is a two way street.  I need to express to you how I feel, but also need to listen to your voice.  Work as a team to really understand each other and respect each other.  I have always been outgoing and outspoken.  But an learning to be humble and quiet.  I am trying to be more of a listener.  I still talk a lot. LOL. But am trying to slow down and listen more.  Practicing daily, true communication and conversations.  Have a great day!
