Most of the time, it is difficult for me to feel sorry for someone or internalize their situation. I also use “judgmental communication” when I deal with others without knowing that I am doing so. By using the feelings exercises, I believe I will be able to communicate in a way that does not blame or punish others for my own personal feelings (SNEHUMAMBUI). I am personally quite respectful of the feelings and rights of others on a professional level, however, it is those closest to me who are victims of my own violent communication. I hope that I can use the NVC tool to further enrich my personal relationships with my friends and family so that I am seen as a leader in their eyes; Not just those I work with. The clarity that will come from a more harmonious family life will surely spill over into my professional life.
