Opening Up Your Mind to A New World Of Communication Part 2

…continued from yesterday’s post

The next lesson on how to better read people is a phrase you have probably heard a 1000 times.

Actions speak louder than words.

Actions speak louder than words.

This is a well known phrase everyone has heard at one time or another. However, I don’t think people realize how useful it is on a daily basis.  Think of it like this: If actions speak louder than words, than you should be hearing people’s ‘actions’, not listening to what ‘words’ they use.  I have written before about how people use excuses to rationalize what they ‘feel’ like doing instead of what they ’should’ do.  Think of a dieting person who says ‘I’ve been good all day.  I deserve a snack‘.
