MAXUM OF QUANTITY
This is where one tries to be as informative as one can, as much as is needed, relative to the subject at hand.
MAXUM OF QUALITY
The speaker here is truthful and will not share important information that has not been backed up by evidence.
MAXUM OF RELATION
Where the person speaking does not veer off course so that the listener does not become confused.
MAXUM OF MANNER
Where the speaker tries to convey information in the clearest and concise way.
DEEP AND SIMPLE
One can use the wisdom behind Mister Rogers’ explanation of ‘deep and simple instead of shallow and complex’ in the same manner in which we deal with communicating with our ex.
It is important to see the humanity in your ex and know that you share the same goals within the children you share. You can presuppose that your ex will also bring warmth and respect to the table.
Do not talk too much, or too little; make your point and stop, do not repeat it again and again. Stick to one topic at a time, and follow Mister Rogers’ advice: make it thoughtful and respectful and rooted in your core values.
