Is Filtering Our Communication a Good Thing?

Do you ever get tired of holding back within your communication? Are you tired of hesitating when someone upsets you? Would you prefer to be direct, but instead you pause often? Learning to filter our words is a skill set and the trick is to learn how to effectively verbalize our positions in life by eliminating the unwanted waste of negativity that can be felt through our tone of voice, or our choice of words. When we appropriately convey our communication we allow for an exchange of openness within the relationship.
