Improve listening skills means that I need to create a commitment, meaning words in my head, a cognition, to repeat the speakers words in my head, in order to pay appropriate attention. Otherwise, I will day dream or formulate my "smarter" retort for interjection at the first available second. Then I need to check out whether my hearing is accurate by repeating back what I heard, and asking if I am accurate. If the speaker reports I am not accurate, then we do it again, because my commitment is to listening, not being right or wrong.

  • man thank you for sharing this!!

  • Speak up!

  • i watched this.. but stopped listening half way through.

  • I appreciate the advice. Thank you, it has been helpful.

  • volume in too low

  • "not to agree or to disagree, but to simply hear"

    This - for me - is the key to really listening... if only so many others could know this!

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
