Reciprocation !! - Importance of feedback

When you stretch a rubber band it does expands. But you should know the limit or else it will break. Any attitude taken to extremes becomes weakness one day and will end up spoiling things. Remember the Steps to the Communication the last step is called response or feedback. Many mistake it, as something to be employed and followed only at workplace and not something to be followed in personal life. The more you find it cooler to not give your response to the people who have chosen to communicate to you, the sooner they would find that ignoring you in return in the coolest thing to do.

Though some may still not ignore because they know how they felt when they were not given feedback and they would not do it to others even to the person who ignored...

Its good to remember that only well timed silence has more eloquence than speech.

Silence and speech both when taken to extremes becomes a spoiler. At least when words go wrong you can use another set of words to explain. Silence when taken to extremes can never be explained by silence and the impact caused will be thousand times more.

It is not necessary to give answers to all questions but basic acknowledgement is what everyone requires. And it is important to express at the right time. Ignoring things when you need to address it is a good way to lose things. Don't do it unless you really don't care what you are going to lose in the process.

The time you have got to respond is directly proportional to the amount of respect you give to the other person... I have personally made sure I leave some reply to every single person, who have chosen me to talk to. If not immediately at least after some reasonable time if I have not seen it or am not in a position to reply. That's the least respect I can give to the person who has chosen me to talk to.

At the end of the day, time is something we make. Even in the middle of 1000 works you can still find time to do things you like and give your reciprocation to people. It's all about what is called as time management.

If you cherish a person and want them to stay in your life and sustain your contacts you would on first place treat them well. You wont treat them differently just because different people are around. You would make sure they never feel being ignored and insulted and if at all they feel that way because of your inadvertent
action (if it is) you would make sure that you explain and console them and not take the word "sorry" as the only escape route.

Mere sorry is never enough. I am reminded of a quote "A stiff apology is second insult. The injured party does not want to be compensated because he has been wronged; he wants to be healed because he has been hurt.

In this fast world this write up might sound crazy but the time you spend on creating and sustaining contacts are what going to help you and the value of it will be known when you are old.

As Harriet Beecher Stowe said "The bitterest tears shed over graves are for words left unsaid and deeds left undone."

Have a nice day!
