Communication of Information

How do you respond when you receive information, especially information that impacts you like you are late or you have been retrenched?

Once I was told I was late as we overslept and the time was so and so. I woke up frantically and rushed to brush my teeth, skipped my breakfast and got dressed for school. I also rushed myself in my pace to school. Remember us being Rushians. When I arrived in school, I was still early and still observed many others strolling themselves into the assembly hall. What a contrast!

The next occasion, I was told to wake up but not told about the exact time. I still woke up as per normal and brushed my teeth. When I noticed the time, I eventually faced reality and started to speed up in drinking my cup of milk and got dressed. When we looked at the clock, we were still early. But this time, we had not become Rushians and our hearts were not pumping as fast.

From this incident I learnt that the way information communication is being handled is so differentiating. If you communicate a certain information in this manner, the response or the result is this way. If you put across that same set of information in another manner, the response may be slightly more positive, less destructive.
