Not every problem is because of a communication gap.
There could be many causes. Maybe the root cause doesn't even have anything to do with communication. Maybe your communication is fine.
That would be surprising. Think about the problems causing you concern today. Think about what gets in the way of your sustaining a centered, mindful, focused balance. Is there a missing message? Is there a confusing call to action? Are people simply not talking about it?
Not every problem is because of a communication gap, but nearly every problem has a communication gap inside.
Solve that. See what happens.
