Some sound advice on "listening" from Jeffrey Gitomer which I find worth repeating for my readers, as well as my own reference:
- 1. Listen with the Intent to understand. A sermon. A movie. In a classroom.
- 2. Listen with the intent to take action. Someone giving instructions.
- 3. Listen with the intent to learn. A teacher. A trainer. A seminar leader.
- 4. Listen with the intent to enjoy. Music. Sounds of nature. Waterfalls. A crackling fire.
- 5. Listen with the intent to remember. Driving directions. A website address. A phone number.
