16. 5 Essentials to having a GOOD conversation
About this episode
In episode 14, I briefly mentioned something about having a GOOD conversation with others...even those who share a different viewpoint than you. But I felt like I left you hanging a little bit on HOW to go about doing that. So, today, instead of teaching a new fallacy, I'm going to teach you 5 essentials to having a GOOD conversation, even when you and the other person disagree.
The 5 Essentials to GOOD communication are:
1. Seek first to understand, then to be understood.
2. Be willing to be persuaded.
3. The goal is to seek truth.
4. Respect & love for the other person.
5. Beware of your own emotional triggers.
