Communication involves using symbols to accomplish goals. People create, manipulate, and use verbal and nonverbal symbols as tools to achieve their goals, and communication allows people to accomplish these goals. The communication process involves a source encoding a message and transmitting it through a channel to be received and decoded by the intended audience. There may be feedback from the receiver in response to the message. Barriers can occur at each stage of the process.

How to become a better listener.
1. Stop Thinking- Be in the moment and hear what the person is saying.
2. Mirror Body Language- We do this subconsciously a lot of times but
you start to do it more when you are aware of it. Don't mock the person
just match them with at least a 3 second delay.
3. Scanning Eye Method- Keep eye contact by looking at the forehead,
noise and chin of the person talking. This is good if you are
uncomfortable with direct eye contact.
4. Repeat what they say in a question form to clarify you are listening.
5.Compliment the person on the thought or subject even if you object to
their point. There is always something you can say nice.
