Being present in the moment enhances communication from "summary" of The Art of People by Dave Kerpen
When we are fully present in a conversation, we are able to truly connect with the other person. This means putting away distractions like phones and truly focusing on the person in front of us. By giving them our full attention, we are showing them respect and demonstrating that we value what they have to say. When we are present in the moment, we are able to pick up on nonverbal cues and signals that can add depth and nuance to the conversation. We can see the way someone's body language changes when they talk about a certain topic, or notice the way their eyes light up when discussing something they are passionate about. By being fully present, we are able to pick up on these cues and respond in a way that shows we are truly engaged with what they are saying. Being present in the moment also allows us to listen more effectively. Instead of planning our response while the other person is speaking, we can give them our full attention and truly hear what they are saying. This not only helps to avoid misunderstandings, but also shows the other person that we value their thoughts and opinions. In a world filled with distractions and constant stimulation, being present in the moment is a rare gift. By taking the time to truly connect with others in this way, we can enhance our communication skills and deepen our relationships. So, the next time you find yourself in a conversation, try putting away your distractions and giving the other person your full attention. You may be surprised at how much more meaningful and fulfilling your interactions become.
