We are talking past one another.
We feel so strongly about our own opinion on everything that we instantly tone out someone who disagrees.
I feel that our societal malaise will only be healed with REAL LISTENING!
The current political divide is the result of too much talk and not enough REAL LISTENING.
And how about really listening to your kids?
You, as a parent, won’t be able to reach them if you don’t know where their minds are.
And how about really listening to your spouse?
He or She is the most important relationship of your life.
REMEMBER, THERE IS ALWAYS ANOTHER POINT-OF-VIEW THAT IS AT ODDS WITH YOURS!
And if you don’t really listen, you’ll never really learn and you’ll never be as close as you want to be.
You will be more trusted by everyone in your life if they are convinced that you are REALLY LISTENING!
