Equations

Perception = What you communicated (+/-) what you really wanted to communicate (+) what the other person believed...

Now here the variables are What you communicated and what you really wanted to communicate... because if the other person believes something already, it does not matter how you say or what you say... both the first variables are multiplied by zero and the other person's belief stays constant...

  4. True bro... make that "what the other person believed OR WAS MADE TO BELIEVE". I have first hand experience. Changing a pre-conceived negative perception to a positive one was a herculean task!

    BTW, I am back on blogging!
