Interesting @Zen, speaking from personal experience, when communicating most of my own attention is on the person and how they express themselves rather than just the words.
From a class I used to have I learned that most of the communication is in our body language and tone of voice, - like 90% of it and only 10% in the words.
Can you explain why this field would help an average person when it just focuses on the real meaning of someone’s words?
I love the reading / listening to audio books. I try to listen to an audio for at least 30 mins a day on my way to the gym or wherever I need to go.
I’ve noticed in the past I looked at others farcical expression and kinda “knew” that they were saying was distorted and asked him to explain more and almost felt like I was guiding them in actually saying what they wanted to say.
So while this is probably the best field for understanding what people actually mean, and the true meaning behind their words… what would be the best field for helping other people to understand what you really mean - avoiding miscommunication, mastering how to communicate your true intentions to others, etc?
If I remember correctly, there was some talk upthread about how [ETA: with this field], when you understand how people think and then construct their speech from those thoughts, you become more masterful in tailoring what you mean to their constructs and concepts. (That’s a concept that comes to us, in part, from NLP.)
Yes. Insight into what someone or something (a situation) is communicating, verbal or non-verbal. All of it: body language, micro expressions, tones, spaces and pauses, etc. Not just the words.
But also not limited to interactions with other people.
Even works for analyzing data I would think. Numbers and figures. Charts, trends, patterns. Any media, books, movies, games, as others above have mentioned.
That’s how it also helps you learn life lessons. “Hindsight is 20/20” but now with more epiphanies.
Hello friends , need some advice. To correctly predict a stock/currency go up in value in a market , is this field is most suited one?
(What i mean is to increase our chances of predicting a correct outcome , especially in Forex , stock markets)
Or other fields like Capital Governance, IPF audio are more suited for this purpose ?
I don’t know if anyone else noticed it, so I’ll share this observation in public.
This field previously helped with empathy, reflection etc, but now it’s a whole new level of metacognition.
The Emanuel Kant type, where my thought break apart and I get to feel, understand a serie of sub-thoughts contained in my initial thought and learn about their deeper meaning, influence, images, foundations. Sub-thought I didn’t recognize before, somewhat like a sequencer or autopsy of my mind.
Pretty cool stuff.
I have been surprised more than once when seeing the open bag of my mind. It is to the mind what linguistic is to language.
