Nowadays, social media is what rules the world, literally and figuratively, in general and specifically. It is a contradictory situation as, while you can be everywhere and nowhere at the same time, talking to everyone and being informed about what is happening, in fact it happens to be completely alone.
In a study conducted in America, it turned out that three out of five Americans feel lonelyin one of the most populous countries.
Kjirsten Mickesh, as a Human Resources (HR) business executive for a number of years, realized this disconnection and focused on resume the conversation, as a means of treating this alienation. Together with her son Taylor, they founded ConnectHuman, an organization, which aims to awaken the world and educate it, so that it can reconnect and grow in the modern environment.
Essentially, what Mickesh is proposing is to reinvent this bond, which holds people together and, through this union, helps them evolve. Besides, our contact with others is a basic human need, such as water and food. Through this communication, the individual recognizes himself and the world, develops skills and claims his happiness.
The courageous discussion
It’s the way to get in touch with your people, with your family, with your associates. It’s the uncomfortable conversation you do not want to have, because you can hurt others, make them angry or frustrated. Does not matter. Because even if all the negative scenarios that you have in your head come true, you will have risen to your feet, you will have bravely told your truth and again you will have bravely come out into the world true.
In this way you leave the screen of your mobile and you see the real world, the world that is out there and you live and not the digital matrix that you think you live in. This revelation will change your life forever. As Mickesh says, courageous discussion is the key to your happiness and success. It is an exercise in the development of your emotional intelligence, self-esteem and self-management. And these characteristics are the key to your completion, they are your strength.
The Six Steps to a Successful and Brave Dialogue
The key step in having this important conversation is to get out of your comfort zone. This means that you need a great deal of courage and determination, which we are sure you have. But if you are afraid that you will fail, here are six ways to help you overcome your stress and find your strength.
First of all, what you need to do is prepare yourself for this difficult discussion. If you have woken up with nerves or if you have a period, do not enter into this process. The aim is to be calm @ to be able to communicate your feelings and thoughts and not to fight with the first conversation.
Put your “I” aside: If you want this conversation to be constructive and to help you re-establish your relationship with that person, then let go of selfishness and pride and treat the other with honesty, understanding and interest.
Also, keep tones low and maintained the debate at a civilized level. Even if you have a lot gathered, make this dialogue seem, as an invitation on your part, to have a consensus and not a confrontation.
Do not be absolute: What you experience does not mean that it is understood by the other. We do not all perceive the same things in the same way. Of course, a behavior can bother you and hurt you, but that does not mean that the other person understands it. Acknowledge that he may not have had bad intentions and find a solution.
Do not be aggressive. Ask the right questions in a gentle tone. You do not need extra volume. Speak in an understandable and calm way and show the other the way for a calm conversation.
Be honest: It will be pointless to get involved in a discussion where you will tell half-truths or cover up some things. Now is the time to stand up bravely and say what you have inside. If you give up or say half of what you want, then you will be back where you started.
Remember that love is the way to do everything right.
