Unfortunately I am also called as forgotten skill


For few seconds close your eyes and recollect  the people who were listening to you effectively and just think how did you feel?


Similarly recollect the people who were not listening to you effectively and just
think how did you feel?


Pause for a while & think about situations when you didn't listen effectively to the following people:


Children who were seeking your attention

 Teachers who were draining while they were imparting knowledge

Elders who wanted to communicate their need

Friends who wanted to share their views

Spouse who wanted to share his/her feelings

Manager who wanted to give a feedback

Subordinate who wanted convey their concerns

Customers who were in search of solutions.


Now reverse the process of thinking from Listener to communicator and feel for a while, you will understand how important I am in your life.


Remember there are no speakers without listeners, there is no relationship without listening.


Why don't you look into a person's eyes and just listen to him/her for few minutes


Happy Listening
