Weblog of Nadine

Were you listening?  It is a knowen fact that we lissen or hear others speaking faster than we speak. Our minds  process what others are saying  much faster. No wonder we want to jump in  with our two cents worth.

Yet  like I said in a previous blog......this is not about  U.  the one speaking should be getting the attention.....all the attention. When it's your turn to speak ....if you did it right.....you'll get the attention. 

What we're all looking for is constructive "Feedback"  The goal should be to  provide honest reactions as to what they are saying. All you're doing is giving your opinions and reactions.

One trick that should help is - repeat the same message ( worded differently )back to them.  Saying something like what you are saying is.....?

When we lissen it is far too easy to twist the words in to our own adjenda rather than the one  who's speaking.  What they said may be totaly night and day different than what we thought we heard.
