THE ART OF LISTENING

THE ART OF LISTENING

Listening is perhaps the most important and the most difficult part of having a healthy conversation. The main reason why most people struggle with being good listeners is because of their ego and impatience.

What is listening?

Listening does not mean hearing just to respond. It is hearing to understand.

Listening is not to judge/analyse what the other person is saying, it means to fully concentrate on what is being said. It is about using empathy & compassion & understanding the complete message, including the underlying emotional message conveyed.

Active listening is a technique to develop our ability to listen and make an effort to truly understand what the other person is trying to say.

Why is listening important?

Being a good listener makes you an even better communicator.

Listening is not only a learning opportunity for you, but it is also one of the fastest and easiest way of making friends & building your network. As human beings we are social creatures & by actively listening to people around us, we are able to connect, co-operate, develop & understand ourselves and each other.

How to be a good listener?

Listen for curiosity & not for the sake of listening.

When listening to someone, try to have your full focus on them & their story rather than getting distracted or reflecting on your past experience or thinking of an answer or comeback.

Ask questions and take into consideration the whole situation before coming to a solid conclusion. Try to take a step back and analyse the whole situation from the other person’s point of view before giving any answer.

What am I doing wrong?/ Things not to do

Poor listening skills create walls in Communication & make things difficult and build more chance for mishappenings and accidents, especially due to miscommunication or incorrect assumptions/conclusions.

Listen to actually understand what they’re saying.

Don’t try to finish their sentences or interrupt them, allow them to finish, that way you can have a proper idea of their point of view and come to a better conclusion.

Try to avoid any & all narcissism. Try not to make it all about you or think about your own past experiences while the person is talking.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.
