I lack patience in heated debates when others cannot grasp the concept I am presenting.
I am easily frustrated when communication is difficult and often look for something to blame it on.
I tend to judge harshly and react with venom when I perceive that someone has been harsh to me.
For all of these things I am trying to take my time and ask myself "how much of this is me, and how much of this is them? Are there things they might be going through that I don't know about that would influence how they are interacting with everyone around them?". I'm trying very hard to be more compassionate. I'm also working on starting a new thread with a friend to discuss what I find to be major stumbling blocks in communication.
