Successfull Communication - Tip - Listen more, talk less

in #vincentb7 years ago

Being able to listen well may be one of the most important qualities you can have as a human being. Those who can listen well to what the other says are often very much loved. Beloved in all circles and layers of society. Most people are busy talking. Those who speak share their thoughts, opinions, beliefs, or share factual information with another. Often we talk so much that we forget that listening is a very good option too.

If we talk , we won't be learning anything new. Who listens, find out what another is doing, feeling, thinking, or needs. We could say, every human being has two ears and one mouth. Listen twice as much as you talk. Matching (the thoughts of) the other makes it possible to ask questions that match the experience of the other.

Asking questions not only opens additional doors in the world of your interlocutor, they also testify of interest. This creates a bond with each other. After all, sincere attention is a source of connection. Try to prevent listening just to speak as soon as you have the chance. Some people are very skilled in taking over the conversation as soon as the opportunity arises. The essence of listening is learning the needs, feelings and thoughts of your Interlocutor.
