Listening

I mentioned listening as an act of generosity. We live in a time of many messages and limited attention. If we can give someone our time and attention to actively listen, we are sharing a valuable gift.

But it goes beyond that. We all have a story to tell and an experience to share. And there are more ways to share our story than ever. More than ever, the person who listens first, listens best, and listens most has the opportunity to learn, lead, and make a difference in the lives of others. Be the listener in the room. It’s a great way to guarantee success.
