Unique Connect

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”  Carl Jung

 

 

How many people are able to connect very quickly with others? I am sure that at times you wonder why is it difficult to communicate and feel at ease with some people. On the other hand what are the reasons we instantly connect with others?  The answer is all in your style of communicating. How many of us are capable of diagnosing our own style? Not many.  So what can we do to relate more effectively with others? The secret is to become more adept at reading others and reflecting on our tendencies and approaches in communicating.

The secret was initially unlocked by C.G.. Jung, a Swiss paychologist who in the 1920’s wrote the book Psychological Types. This book was started to be translated in 1922 but was translated in its entirety and published in the U.S. around 1975. 

I would recommend this book for anyone who is trying to become more effective in communicating and interpersonal relationships.
