In Practice
Best way to communicate in a social conversation is to both talk and allow others to talk while paying attention to them. When sharing one's views one must be aware of the word use, tone and emotions.
Even people with good communication skills can fail to communicate well in a social environment. Potential problems in their social communication can include:
- Confusing communication.
- Giving too little or too much information.
- Repetitive communication.
- Speaking out of the box.
- Talking too slowly.
To improve social communication, the above problems need to be overcome.

Famous quotes containing the word practice:
“Abused as we abuse it at present, dramatic art is in no sense cathartic; it is merely a form of emotional masturbation.... It is the rarest thing to find a player who has not had his character affected for the worse by the practice of his profession. Nobody can make a habit of self-exhibition, nobody can exploit his personality for the sake of exercising a kind of hypnotic power over others, and remain untouched by the process.”
—Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
“If I had my life over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practise, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever- present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.”
—Muriel Spark (b. 1918)
