Interpersonal Relations ~

Relationsarising from and issues relating to people interacting with other people;

Skills required for improvinginterpersonal relations.

Can you have

Success and Happiness

without developing

Interpersonal Relations

and all other related skills ?

Some background …

As we grow up, we improve our skillsat communicating our wants and needs, our feelings and thoughts,with our family members, to begin with,and the rest of the world, over a period of time.

We also learn to interpret other people's wants and needs,feelings and thoughts, so that we are aware of how our behaviour impacts on others.

We find that people with good interpersonal skills get along well, with people, and circumstances.

They connect with other people effortlessly, they seem to know the right things to say and they generally succeed in whatever they do.

We find that these people are more comfortable with themselves, [ implying self-management ]and hence, we find that we are more comfortablein being with them.

Interestingly, we find that interpersonal skills are one of those things that you'll only really notice when someone doesn't have them!

And, understandably, if we are not good at these skills,it is the others who first notice it.

The good news is thatIt is possible for everyone of us to develop really effective interpersonal skills.

The question is,are we aware of the need, and if so,are we interested and committed toimproving our skills, continuously ?

A commitment to spend a little time

working on improving your interpersonal skillswill pay huge dividends,

throughout your future life.

Once again, the question is,

are you ready, and if so,when are you going to begin ?
