BARRIERS TO COMMUNICATION
This exercise shows that there are two parts to communication: The sender and receiver.
There may be a fault with the sender. They may not have remembered the message clearly, or their voice may not have been clear.
There may be fault with the receiver. They may not have heard properly, or may not have listened intently, or may not have understood the message.
There are therefore many barriers to communication: in this case physical barriers of voice and hearing, or mental barriers of understanding and memory.
But there are also many barriers due to emotions or due to relationships.
