Explain Why Actions Are More Powerful Than Words

Decent Essays
Sometimes people do negative things. Instead of act they prefer to be just talking. Actions are more powerful than words in many ways. People got to know what they are doing because sometimes they don’t care on what they did, do or they are doing, simply because they prefer to talk and not to act the way it’s suppose to be. For example boys talk like if they are the king of a kingdom in school, but when they have to do what they said they don’t do anything and they just fell awkward on everything they said, but sometimes here is the good boy that encourage everything he says he done it but never feels awkward himself. However, actions will always be more powerful than words. Because that way people are going to feel comfortable

Rosemary Cooke’s father, a psychology professor at the University of Indiana, suggests that there is a difference between communication and language by explaining that “language is more than just words” (Fowler 98).

In We are All Completely Beside Ourselves, Fowler suggests that communicating with others can go beyond verbal form. Different forms of communication help us exchange…

In these conversations they are very indirect and vague on what they want or mean and they want others to do this also. Even though they commonly say how they just want people to be “straight up with them” and get to the point, and tell them what they really mean. He goes on to explain that the reason why people do this is because they are very sensitive with the relationship they have with…

    Deborah Tannens essay “Sex, Lies and Conversation: Why Is It So Hard for Men and Women to Talk To Each Other?” offers many explanations as to why men and women converse differently. Tannen concluded from her own research that the linguistic differences, body language, and silence in opposing settings have an equal contribution as to why the genders communicate differently among groups of all the same gender and groups of opposing gender. While women often add their input on a situation men find that as being a challenge of their dominance. Tannen effectively demonstrates the riff between the genders through the use of childhood experiences, and showing how younger experiences shape adult communication behaviors. Men and women have very different…

    There are many ways how silence could be efficient or harmful. However, I believe that silence is dangerous in many ways possible. My reasons are that people wouldn’t be able to express their thoughts on important situation and serious topics with silence, as well as the tension of silence from the people. Also, people could have limited knowledge because of silence, and silence can be destructive to a person’s or the other’s personality. My first reason is that people wouldn’t be able to express their thoughts on important situation and serious topics with silence, as well as the tension of silence from the people.…

    The fifth chapter of Interplay centers itself around the principle of language, and how it so greatly effects interpersonal communication. One of the concepts that stuck out to me from this chapter was the nature of language, and how language is rule-governed. There are both phonological rules and syntactical rules, which respectively mean “how sounds are combined to form words” and “the way symbols can be arranged,” which are simply how the language is organized and interpreted to their speakers (Adler, Rosenfeld, Proctor, 2015, pg. 141). There are also semantic rules, which “govern our use of the language,” in other words, “the meaning of statements” (Adler et. al, 2015, pg. 141).…

    Keynote speaker, Clint Smith speaks on the “Dangers of Silence” through the reflection of his own failures to tell the basic, everyday truth. When we hear the word danger, we typically think straight of the actions committed by others that are grave and deadly. Mr. Smith, a writer, and teacher brought an entirely new meaning to the meaning of silence. Clint states that the pure act of silence being recognized as serene causes more danger than any good. He teaches the audience that when we are dealing with controversial issues that demand action from the public, we divert ourselves to keep hushed and automatically become muted in order to avoid the issue at hand.…

    That is what I find hard with Nonverbal communication it doesn’t matter what the person says or doesn’t say it is what you receive from that conversation is what ultimately matters. In this painful conversation that I had with my dad still brings an emotional attachment to that day and how it made me feel about him and about myself. It was one conversation that I have never forgotten. It changed the course of my life. I would not consider it a successful conversation, but one that I reflect on a lot and I think that I have used it as a template in my life, not as an example of not to follow.…
