A linguistic view of the world
PROFESSOR:
People possess the same
physical organs for sensing the world: we have eyes for seeing, ears for hearing,
noses for smelling. But does everyone really sense the world in exactly
the same way? Two linguists, Edward Sapir and Benjamin Whorf, didn't think
so. Sapir and Whorf believed that people's perception of the world depends
very much on the language they speak. It's called the Sapir Whorf
hypothesis.

The art of communication
NEW AGER:
The
art of effective communication doesn't begin with talking, it begins with
listening. How often, during a conversation, have you realized that the person
you're talking to isn't really listening to what you say, but instead just
waiting for you to stop talking, so that they can start talking? Do you
know what I'm talking about? They don't make much eye contact, they
fidget, their body language is cold and uninterested in fact it seems they've
got something else on their mind. You see, listening isn't just something
you do with your ears it's something you do with your mind, your body and your
soul.
