Nonviolent communication
Words and the way they are used make a huge difference in every situation a person may find themselves in. Unfortunately, a large portion of the population aren’t exactly precise in their word choices. And more often than not, this can lead to a problem becoming worse than it could have been. Or even creating whole new problems.
I would be surprised if anyone reading this hasn’t experienced this to be the case.
So what is violent communication?
Statements that convey a moralistic Judgement (you’re being unreasonable, you’re lazy).
Making comparisons (leading to feelings of inadequacy)
Denial of responsibility (avoiding taking responsibility for one’s own emotional responses and subsequent actions)
Demanding (making demands instead of requests)
Threats (explicit or implicit threats used to manipulate or control others)
What is nonviolent communication?
Observation: stating facts without judgement or
Evaluation
Feelings: honestly expressing what you are feeling as a result of the observation.
Needs: identifying the needs connected with your feelings. What needs are being met, unmet?
Requests: making clear, specific, and doable requests. What specific action do you need the other person to take.
