Have you ever had a conversation with someone and you truly felt that you were being straightforward and clear in what you were saying and it turned out the other person was completely confused by what you just said? In your mind the ideas, words, and intent are clear but for some reason, your message was as clear as mud to the other person. They could, in fact, be more confused than when you started the conversation or not know what your point is to the story. This can be super frustrating not only you but your audience. What happened? How did your point in your mind get so muddied as it came out of your mouth? Well, this is where the art of communication comes into play.
