Ten油Kernels油for油Better油Listening
ENGAGE
To油listen油is油an油effort,油and油just油to油hear油is油no油merit.油A油duck油hears油also.
Igor油Stravinsky
Recognize
listening is
work!
To do it well, you
need to focus on
others and not
yourself.
STOP油TALKING
A油good油listener油is油not油only油popular油everywhere,油but油after油a油while油he油gets油to油know油something.
Wilson油Mizner
Be quiet.
Having a hard
time with this?
Touch the roof of
your mouth with
your tongue.
Photo:油Kristy油Hall
PUT油THE油PHONE油DOWN
It油is油the油province油of油knowledge油to油speak,油and油it油is油the油privilege油of油wisdom油to油listen.
Oliver油Wendell油Holmes
Texting while
others are
talking is
distracting and
RUDE.
Period.
Dont do it.
LOOK油PEOPLE油IN油THE油EYE
I油like油to油listen.油油I油have油learnt油a油great油deal油from油listening油carefully.油油Most油people油never油listen.油油
Ernest油Hemingway
Practice good
eye contact.
But remember,
more than 20
seconds at a
time is death-
stare territory.
DONT油INTERRUPT油
Listen.油Do油not油have油an油opinion油while油you油listen油because油frankly,油your油opinion油doesn't油hold油much油water油outside油of油油Your油Universe. Just油listen.油Listen油
until油their油brain油has油been油twisted油like油a油dripping油towel油and油what油they油have油to油say油is油all油over油the油floor.油油油油 Hugh油Elliott
Unless the other
persons hair is
on fire, let him
finish speaking.

PARAPHRASE油WHAT油YOU油HEAR
I油know油that油you油believe油you油understand油what油you油think油I油said,油but油I'm油not油sure油you油realize油that油what油you油heard油is油not油what油I油meant.
Robert油McCloskey
Repeat what
others say.
Doing so shows
interest and
confirms
understanding.
Photo:油Thomas油Hawk油油
A油FACE油IS油WORTH油1000油WORDS
Too油often油we油underestimate油the油power油of油a油touch,油a油smile,油a油kind油word,油a油listening油ear,油an油honest油compliment,油or油the油smallest act油of油caring,油all油of油
which油have油the油potential油to油turn油a油life油around. Leo油Buscaglia
Use appropriate
facial
expressions.
Nods, smiles,
and similar
gestures show
you are paying
attention.
ASK油QUESTIONS
If油you油spend油more油time油asking油appropriate油questions油rather油than油giving油answers油or油opinions,油your油listening油skills油will油increase.
Brian油Koslow
Stay engaged by
asking: What?
Where? When?
Who? Why?
How?
Photo:油Orin油Zebest
WAIT油YOUR油TURN
The油opposite油of油talking油isn't油listening.油The油opposite油of油talking油is油waiting.
Fran油Lebowitz
Be fully engaged
in the moment.
Do your best to
be present
rather than
focused on what
you will say
next.
PRACTICE
Most油of油the油successful油people油I've油known油are油the油ones油who油do油more油listening油than油talking.
Bernard油Baruch
Remember good
habits develop
from consistent
practice.
Start each day
committed to
better listening.
