Business Communication

1. Perception and Reality

2. Communication is the symbolical representation of
realities that we perceive through our senses.
1. Reality Defined
- Reality is something that exist in the real world.
- All those things that are detected by our senses.
- However, it also refers to the things that exist in
our mind, or the thing that we think of. (But the
question is that whether we think of the real or
unreal matters a lot in this case.)

3. a. Reality with substance
- Reality is the substance- that is all that has
physical shape and composition. In other words,
it refers to those things that we feel and see
around us, e.g chair, book etc.
b. Reality without substance
- Reality also includes elements without physical
shape and composition, e.g air, time, color etc.

4. c. The reality of events
- Reality of motion.
- Reality also exists in the motion/ sequence of
events. In the sequence of events every sign have
different relationship with different parts of
realities that surround it. Thus, this changing
relationship of the sign is also a (part of) reality.
- An event could be separated by beginning,
middle and end. However, it is hard to isolate
events from its sequence.

5. d. Position of relationship
Reality marks the position or status of the
person or things.
- The objects or the person may be
somewhere/ anywhere at a distinct time, so
- Every things have spatial relationship with
other things.
