Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Inclusive approach to communication skills
In an era where misunderstandings and miscommunications are commonplace, the guide "THE POWER OF COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND EFFECTIVE LISTENING: Say What You Mean and Mean What You Say" emerges as a beacon of clarity. This book addresses the fundamental disconnects that often plague personal and professional relationships, providing readers with practical tools and strategies to enhance their communication prowess.
The book starts by delving into the essence of intrapersonal communication, setting the stage for understanding the profound impact of self-talk on our interactions with others. This foundational knowledge is crucial, as it paves the way for the exploration of the six pivotal steps to becoming an effective listener. Listening is often overlooked in communication guides, but here, it's given the spotlight, highlighting its role in transforming conversations and relationships.
One of the book's strengths lies in its comprehensive approach to non-verbal communication. The author demystifies the subtle cues and signals that make up a significant portion of our interactions, offering readers insight into a layer of communication that often goes unnoticed but is vitally important.
Conflict resolution is another critical area covered in the book. The strategies provided are not only practical but also aim to strengthen relationships, fostering an environment where disagreements can lead to growth rather than discord. This is complemented by a deep dive into empathy, where the author outlines four critical points necessary for cultivating deeper connections with others.
The book doesn't stop at verbal and non-verbal communication; it also explores written communication, cultural aspects, and common barriers, ensuring readers are well-equipped to navigate the diverse landscapes of modern communication. Additionally, it introduces the 3 essential social skills for effective communication, along with powerful ice-breakers and steps to assertive communication, enriching readers' toolkit for initiating and maintaining meaningful conversations.
Perhaps what sets this guide apart is its inclusive approach. It speaks directly to those who may feel sidelined due to age, personality, or past failures in improving their communication skills. By addressing these concerns with compassion and offering a blend of exercises, real-life examples, and cultural considerations, the book ensures that effective communication is accessible to all.
In conclusion, "THE POWER OF COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND EFFECTIVE LISTENING" is not just another guide on how to communicate; it's a transformative journey that equips readers with the knowledge and skills to say what they mean and mean what they say. Whether you're looking to improve your personal relationships, professional interactions, or simply want to be understood, this book offers a clear, comprehensive, and compassionate path to achieving those goals.

Take your communications skills up a notch
So I thought I had pretty good communication skils before reading this book but it actually taught me how to talk better with everyone! The book has a natural flow to it that enables you to build on each chapter.
There are 6 easy steps that I am using to help me listen better and show what I actually mean more clearly. In addition, the information provided about body language I think is going to be invaluable. Do yourself a favor and get this book, you will not regret it.

Great insights on ways of communicating
This is a really well-rounded book on the different aspects of communication using simple explanations, real-life examples and practical activities. I especially liked the parts that talked about non-verbal communication that occurs in body language, which can give us so many clues about what we might be otherwise missing. The explanations about how to engage in active listening are great, and the author makes otherwise complex concepts easy to understand. Everyone needs good communication skills to deepen their connections and be heard/understood, and this book is a great source!

Learn to Listen
It's funny; I never really thought about it before, but we are never really taught how to listen. It's an incredibly essential and important skill, and we are left completely in the dark. As I was listening to this audiobook, it became clear that there are very specific steps I should be doing to improve my ability to truly listen and hear others. The author goes over how to do this and I am now starting to practice. This is definitely going to improve my communicationskills and my relationships. This is a great and helpful audiobook.

COMMUNICATION IS THE KEY!
Author Janet Cruz outlines a powerful path to effective communication in this insightful book.
I love her emphasis on becoming an effective listener, something I found immediately useful by understanding the six steps to make one receptive and understanding in any communication. Recognizing and understanding nonverbal cues is also a real boon. This book is a powerful adjunct in personal, social, and business communications, and will help you to become centered and powerful in all the daily realms of interaction. It's refreshing to have these effective tools for clear expression, active listening, and the ability to build strong relationships. Highly recommended.

Excellent Communication Advice
Right from the start, this book catches your interest with helpful hints and examples from real life that make you think twice about the way you talk and listen to people. The way it's written makes it easy to understand complex ideas about talking and listening. What really hit home for me was how much it focused on listening and the importance of really getting what others are saying, not just hearing the words. The book is full of activities that push you to get better at sharing your thoughts and really hearing others. The information in this book can really help and change how you connect with other people. I highly recommend it.
