#87 People can't read your mind

So you gotta tell them.  This applies to workplace, career, relationships, and simple daily encounters even with strangers.   That's why they made turn signals in cars.  The safest way to change lane or to make a left or right turn is to tell others by turning on these left or right signal ahead of time.  People who don't do turn signals are the ones most likely get involved in accidents.  You can't assume other people know what you want or how you feel.  Tell that special person how much you love him/her.  Tell your teacher that you appreciate and enjoy her classes.   Tell your supervisor that you want a raise or promotion.   Tell us if something bothers you and you need somebody to talk to.  This is the one part of communication.  The other part is listening.  An effective relationship involves two-way communication.
