So under-appreciated: Give everyone you talk to your complete undivided attention.
@ShaneAParrish There is a huge difference between active listening and passive listening. Active listening is so rare you'll leave a great impression anytime you use it.
@ShaneAParrish The gift of presence is a rarity in today’s society It’s also the gift society desperately needs
@ShaneAParrish You either listen or you don't. Being half-present during a conversation does everyone a disservice, including yourself. If you're busy or in a rush, just say so and move on.
@ShaneAParrish It is not easy i practiced it everyday ........ It is not easy........... Thoughts- to action - to process- to sustainability ......... It not easy to go from thought to sustainability.........
@ShaneAParrish Only then they'll get the feeling, that they are listened to.
@ShaneAParrish Just had this discussion with my mother, told her about I start to become awkward listening to ppl because idk what to do with my face and want to let them know they have my full attention. She said you’re focusing too much on yourself just listen- focus on them
@ShaneAParrish Agree. Actively trying to get better at this each day 👊
