The author gives the example of the fifth habit, which is seek to understand before being understood, in the example it is a son talking to his father about school. The father is trying to give his advice and evaluation and trying to understand. the Conversation ends with the son leaving.
The second conversation starts the same way but the father gets to the root cause of the problem, which that the son just doesn't want to fail. He reached the goal by first repeating everything the son said but in his own words so that he would understand better. Although this is only good for deeper conversation. "Hey do you know where the bathroom is i have to go really bad!", "I understand that you you to really go, is that it?".
The author says also that it is important to not just repeat what the guy who your having a conversation with said. But you have to make him think about what he means.
Issues Summary
"seek to understand before being understood"
→ Suggestion: seek to understand before being understood.
This phrase is a complete thought and should end with a period to indicate its completion.
"the Conversation ends with the son leaving."
→ Suggestion: The conversation ends with the son leaving.
The word 'the' should be capitalized to start the sentence correctly, and 'Conversation' should be lowercase as it is not a proper noun.
"which that the son just doesn't want to fail."
→ Suggestion: which is that the son just doesn't want to fail.
The phrase 'which that' is incorrect; it should be simplified to 'which is' to clarify the sentence.
"this is only good for deeper conversation."
→ Suggestion: this is only good for deeper conversations.
The noun 'conversation' should be pluralized to 'conversations' to match the context of discussing multiple instances.
"i have to go really bad!"
→ Suggestion: I have to go really bad!
The pronoun 'I' should always be capitalized in English.
"you you to really go"
→ Suggestion: you want to really go
There is a repetition of 'you'; it should be corrected to 'you want' for clarity.
"the guy who your having a conversation with said."
→ Suggestion: the guy who you're having a conversation with said.
The contraction 'you're' (you are) should be used instead of 'your' (possessive) in this context.
