1. Describe a goal for interpersonal improvement in your personal life. Be sure to explain the following:
* What aspects of your own interpersonal communication skills would you like to improve? * How far are you from attaining this goal? * Do you think this goal is set too high or too low? Why, or why not? * How long will it take me to attain this goal? * If the goal will take a long time to attain, could you set smaller goals that you could attain while still working toward your bigger goal? * How will you benefit from successfully attaining your goal?
(Your personal goal and explanations go here. Be sure to respond to EACH question above.)
An interpersonal goal that I want to improve in my personal life is learning to understand others and my communication towards others as well. Through my life I have had conversation or debates with people and sometimes I totally misunderstand them, and then I would get into a debate and tell the person off as if they weren’t logical and had the wrong information. I want to fix this because in order for me to be able to understand and communicate with people in a professional setting I must first get myself right personally. I think that I am not far from attaining this goal because I have pursued my problem by first working on communication with my kids. I would usually argue at them and then send them into time out but now I listen to them and explain to them wrong
