We rely on intuition when we make decisions without active reasoning. 90% of critical decisions are made using our intuition.

How to communicate with anyone

Communication is a skill that takes practice and requires you to invest in understanding others as well as yourself.

“Listen with curiosity. Speak with honesty. Act with integrity. The greatest problem with communication is we don’t listen to understand. We listen to reply. When we listen with curiosity, we don’t listen with the intent to reply. We listen for what’s behind the words.”

Roy T. Bennett
