How to be a better listener
"It's not like this goal is ever finished of course, but I was unexpectedly pulled aside by someone I know, who out of the blue, thanked me for the way I listened to him and said that he hadn't been listened to that way in a long time."
How I did it: Was intentional about being receptive and suppportive of what the other person was saying. Kept my mind clear. Did not judge anything they said.
Lessons & tips: I attempt to adhere to the Quaker adage: Do not speak unless it is an improvement upon silence.
