They say the first step towards knowledge is to admit that you are not knowledgeable. Here's my admission to the fact that I suck at negotiations being a B-school student and that there have been milestones that have led me to this realization. Situations and questions when thrown at me create a havoc in mind as to what is it that I need to answer rather than just ejecting out the answer that I have. This havoc is courtesy many rules and fundae that I carry in my lil' junk to make the right decisions. Mark my words. Too much knowledge has actually pushed me to the wall. And thats where I am scribbling my confessions.
Allright, lets move away from the sobbing for a while. Negotiations are the back bone of communication. I was till now a mix of soft and hard negotiator based on the situation but both ways I ended up losing. On joining the dots back one sees how crooked the line actually has got !
I want something and I ask for something else.
I am clear at one point of time while get swayed at the other.
I am questioning the moment but not my self.
I am running away and away.
But hey, how long ???
So, now I decide to turn around and salute all those bloody mistakes of lousy conversations( primarily based on emotions and perceptions) to give way to a new way of looking at things, doing things and making things happen. Yes I still suck at 'em but I am willing to improve consciously.
How???
Remembering that its always problem and not people; intentions not situations; needs and not appearances and finally listening and not hearing.
