		<description>Krista, This is a great blog post.  It is so true that we need to learn and understand how to communicate effectively.  If communication breaks down so does everything else.  Thanks for sharing this great content!</description>

		<description>Krista,
Learning the different personalities is fun stuff.  It is also great for self discovery.  I was exposed to this early on and I still draw from it in my daily life.  You have shared some new resources and it is definitely time for a refresher course.</description>

		<description>Ed, 
My friend you are the master at adding value, so you have obviously done your homework in the personality department.  Thank you for all you do!  I&#039;m looking forward to our skype conversation this week!

		<description>Debbie,
Glad you enjoyed the post.  Communication is definitely a skill that takes a lot of practice...and sometimes some trial and error to master.  I consider myself a lifetime student of effective communication.  I am always learning from others and seeking to learn more about how to improve in this area with every interaction I have.  Wishing you the best!

		<description>Hey Krista,

Wonderful post.  It is so amazing how people do not really understand how to be in relationship with others.  I can remember a time when I lived in &quot;the matrix&quot; and had not idea.
Now that I have been unplugged, I am thankful for all that I have.  I love to look at personality profiles and a strive to understand the personality of the person who I am talking to so that I can communicate in such a way that will add value to them.  It is something that everyone should learn.

Make it a great day!
God Bless,
-ed</description>

		<description>Krista, this is a great post about learning how to communicate with others.  Like Kathy, I also grew up on a household where communication was not present, so hearing skills to learn how to communicate better is a great thing for me.  Jeff Combs also does a really good series about the different personality types.   Thanks again for your wisdom!</description>

		<description>Krista,

Knowing what makes people tick is a great start to effective communication... so right! Another thing we feel is a great tool in effective communication is actually listening to what the other person has to say. If someone feels they are being heard they are more likely to connect during communication.

Thanks,
~ Pat and Lorna

		<description>Hi Krista,

You&#039;ve put together a great list of resources here.  Often people will blame everything else or everyone else and not realise that there is a communication issue.  

Sometimes I go away from a bad conversation and think about why they reacted in the way they did or why I did and I can often understand where it went wrong.  It&#039;s a matter of learning how to communicate effectively so to avoid mis communications and bad reactions when it happens.  It&#039;s really amazing to sit back and think of why they reacted in a certain way and realise where the other person is coming from or how they interpreted it.  I recommend doing it regularly.

Cheers,
