COMMUNICATING BEYOND WORDS


"One can wait for results but not wait to take action"

All of a sudden, the above phrase came up as a part of the dialogue with my dad today.
It was a spontaneous statement, coming out of nowhere.
Fortunately, both of us caught the words, and there was a considerable length of silence between us.

Dad was pondering over the meaning those words conveyed.
I was pondering, (rather wondering) the communication itself.

It has been proven that, as adults we do not read a sentence letter by letter.
We read it in chunks of several characters, or words.
The fastest readers, read in chunks of several paragraphs even a page, in one go.

We HAVE the capability to transfer/assimilate information not restricting to just words, but the meaning, emotions, feelings and the EXPERIENCE, all in one go.

Any communication process involves:

Emotion/Feeling/Thought -T R A N S L A T E--> Words/pictures/music x=T R A N S M I T=x--- Words/pictures/music -R E C O N S T R U C T--> Emotion/Feeling/Thought

The best form of communication - Going beyond words, can be picturized as:

Emotion/Feeling/Thought ---> x=T R A N S M I T=x ---> Emotion/Feeling/Thought

But, how?

We know few people are good in communicating the content beyond words.

Thinking deep into it, I am getting more and more questions. And I am shooting it here into this Blog.

May be, if you are also left with more questions,then this has met its objective. :)
