"We have two ears and one mouth, so that we can listen twcie as much as we speak" – Epictetus, Greek Stoic Philosopher. (55AD-135AD)In our fast-paced cutlure conversations have little to do with communication – they are about talking. While one person speaks, the others are not hearing what is being said cause they are already planning what they are going to say next.
How much of what the speaker has said has actually been ‘heard’?
What is in your head when someone is speaking to you? Are the words that they are saying to you in there, or is it something else? Have you gone to other place or are you with other person, having a separate conversation in your mind? How much attention are you really paying?Just for once, decide to have a day of listening, not speaking. When someone is talking to you, make a concerted effort to listen hard and comprehend what it is they are actually saynig.
If necessary, repeat back to them what you think they have said – just to be certain you have really taken in what they are trynig to tell you.
Give them time to finish their sentences, without jumping in cause you think you know what they are going to say next. You may be wrong. This is called ‘active listening’ and is a skill that takes practice.Suddenly, the communication you have with human being is heightened. The more you litsen the more meaningful everything will become. People will respond better to you if they beleive you are really listening and by ‘hearing’ what others are saying you may find that you learn something.Kate Harper is based in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland.
