7 Ages of Understanding Parody - Unraveling Miscommunication

Unraveling miscommunication Is not always sought out, but rather wise. The key to understanding is simple. Just listen closely to these next few steps; First step is to humble yourself right then, Like a lowly slave, sinking to his knees. Every bit of confidence vanishing, Like myself before a presentation. Sharpen your ability to listen. Your opponent will give up otherwise. Questions such as “how?” and “why?” are solid. Like a child with a lust for great knowledge. Figuring out the other’s point of view Will provide insight for your conception. Much like a dog’s interest in your food, You must make an effort for your rival. Next, agilely contrast your ideas. Determine whether you still take your side. Like a tragic love story on TV, This may cause tenderness in your spirit. Be sure to clearly show your point of view. Make your theories obvious to them, Like a horse among a herd of donkeys. Offer parallels between ideas. The next step is to explain rationale. If they don’t get where you are coming from, You will have no chance to prove yourself just. Sort of like a suspect at a trial. The final step is to make sweet amends. Cover your tracks with buttery comments, Like a sly character with his gossip. This, my friend, is how to heal your own speech.
