In my experiences, my lack of empathy has put me in a number of situations where I just wish I wasn’t there. Especially with my girlfriend. Obviously good communication skill

Empathy, the ability to know our feelings, and accurately sense the feelings of those around us, to help make positive connections around us. Empathy can be defined in many ways, this is just one of them. To empathize as someone wrote a long time ago, “Is to see with the eyes of another, to hear with the ears of another, and to feel with the heart of another.”

For the most part, the way we act, and express our feelings and emotions as adults, was learned when we were younger, from our childhood. This was usually taught to us by our parents, or care givers. Not knowing how to express your emotions, or having lack of communication skills, is a sign that you will have a hard time relating to other people around you. You can hear what people say, but if you don’t know how to listen, then you can basically go tell the person you are talking to, that they can go talk to a brick wall, because that is what they are already doing with you. Remember hearing is done with our ears, listening is done with our heart. If you can really listen to a person, and take to heart what they say, then you will truly understand that person. Sometimes people hear what you are saying, but the whole time they are just running a sentence in their head, waiting for you to finish your sentence, so they can get their turn. These people are not empathetic.

Obviously good communication skills are a big part of relationships. If you can not empathize, and see the world through your partners eyes, there will be a lot of problems involved. Most people have different values, beliefs, religions, sexual preference, the list goes on. If you do not understand that your partners, or your friends, have the right to believe what they want. Then you are most certainly lacking in the empathy department. This does not mean that you have to agree with what they are saying, or believe what they say. You just have to understand that they have their beliefs, and you have yours.

Good listening skills are key to having empathy and good communication. A good tool I learned from my anger management class with Dr Anthony Fiore, PH.D., straight from his anger management book, Anger management for the 21st century . “When you are talking to someone, imagine a video camera in the corner of the room recording your behavior,. Ask yourself, these questions. ‘How am I looking right now?’ ‘How am I being seen from the viewpoint of other people?’ ‘Is the message im delivering the same one as they are receiving?’” The video camera tool works wonders. It has helped me to become a much better listener. Good
