In order to be other-oriented, we must have an accurate understanding of our own self-concept and self-esteem. This allows us to communicate effectively with others and understand their perspective. Learning everything we can about the other person is important, but it is not the first step. The importance of communication in a relationship is also relevant, but it is not the singular most important goal. Attaining a specific level of relationship with the listener may also be important, but it is not necessary to be other-oriented.
