Strive for mutual understanding from "summary" of I Think, You Read Me by Maurice Schmidt

When we engage in communication, our ultimate goal should be to seek a common ground - a mutual understanding that allows us to connect with others on a deeper level. This means actively listening to what the other person is saying, not just waiting for our turn to speak. By truly understanding their perspective, we can better respond in a way that shows we value their thoughts and feelings. Mutual understanding requires empathy, the ability to put ourselves in someone else's shoes and see the world from their perspective. This means setting aside our own biases and judgments to truly listen and appreciate where the other person is coming from. By showing empathy, we demonstrate that we care about the other person's experience and are willing to work together to find common ground. In order to achieve mutual understanding, we must also be willing to communicate openly and honestly. This means being transparent about our own thoughts and feelings, while also being receptive to feedback and perspectives that may differ from our own. By fostering an environment of open communication, we create space for mutual understanding to thrive and grow. It's important to remember that achieving mutual understanding is a continuous process, not a one-time event. It requires ongoing effort and commitment to building strong relationships based on trust and respect. By striving for mutual understanding in our interactions with others, we can create more meaningful connections and foster a sense of unity and collaboration.
