Remember to listen

I want to ask you a question today.  Do you really listen when someone else is talking or are you already thinking about what you want to say?

So many people are just waiting for the opportunity to talk.  I used to do this all the time and I had to really force myself to just listen.

Of course in a conversation, you need to talk to but make it your priority to really listen to what other people are saying too.

Pay attention over the next few days and you'll notice if you need to work on this and you'll notice when other people need to do it too.

And added bonus is that the people around you will feel more valued and respected.
