Different Ways of Looking at Life

Some major miscommunications occur because people look at life differently. We see it in politics, families, business, and religions. The source of the problem can often be identified as the thinker versus the feeler.

The communication challenge comes when the feeler is discussing an issue from an emotional perspective and the thinker is coming from a rational perspective. When each person believes their perspective is correct, hurt feelings, confusion, and frustration can develop.

Instead of discounting the other person’s viewpoint, know that their perspective can broaden your view point.
