 | | Shannan is right. I used to be like that but I have learnt curbing it. | |  |
 | | Truer words were never spoken... Sometimes 'Silence is Golden'. -:) | |  |
| | Lourdes, that is a good question. How can you catch yourself before people become disenchanted? I'll be honest with you, I'm not really sure. Maybe this is where great communication skills come in handy. I was taught that you cannot not communicate.
Be in tune with your communicating partner(s). Watch for signs of disconnection. Sometimes nonverbal communication speaks louder than verbal communication. | | |
| | Shannan, your advice is great and correct. The problem I find is that I am often surrounded by people that are equally loud. We don't even notice when we're doing it. Strangers won't tell us because they want to be polite. They simply distance themselves, which is infinitely worse because you never get a chance to correct your ways. So the question becomes, how do you catch yourself before you turn people off? | | |
| | It sounds like you have already taken the first step in recognizing that your natural tone is loud. The only thing that I can think of is to just practice using a softer tone during conversations at home with your family. Your family can inform you when there is a change.You can use the buddy system when in social situations. Have your partner or buddy use a non-verbal indiscreet method of informing you when your tone is too loud. Truthfully, the softer tone will become more natural with practice.
Hope this made sense and was helpful. | | |
