Question

Think about it! This is not that simple today!

Answer 1

Hey Lover Boy,

God gave us 2 ears and one mouth, so we would listen twice as much as we talk.

Listening is a skill! Check out active listening techniques, and listening skills.

You are correct that it is not simple, but it has never been simple. The complications today are the Global Community, access to different cultures, dialects, languages, accents, etc.
Not to mention the electronic gadgets that record the spoken word, and may give us a different intent. There is far more information to listen to, and many more distractions. Again, I say you are correct.

The best listeners I ever met were Famous in their trade - because the listen. Their focus when the talk to you is only on you, and they tell you things about your discussion, you though they might not have caught. Feedback and focus.

Answer 2

The best way to listen to others is not to enter the conversation selfishly. Go in actually listening to and empathizing with what the other person is talking about. Be an active listener by nodding, saying "uh-huh" when appropriate and asking probing questions throughout the conversation. When appropriate, interject with bits of advice or suggestions. Reiterate certain key points to show that you are listening actively. Most of all, don't spend the entire conversation dreaming up what you're going to say next or what witty story you're going to top their with. Just listen and care about what they are talking about. Forget about what you have to say for the moment.

Answer 5

The best way to listen to others is to cast your own biases, desires and expectations aside. Those things color our view and keep us from giving people our undivided attention. If you're like me, this is easier said than done because of the mind's internal commentary. You don't have to turn it off, just change the station from your thoughts to their words ans behavior.
