Showing results for "The Listener" in Relationships

When it comes to effective communication, a wise man once advised, “Be quick to listen and slow to speak.” If ever there was a time to employ such advice, it is today. In our modern society, we are conditioned from youth to expect constant distractions and interruptions. The result is an ever-shortening attention span which is potentially detrimental to our relationships, both social and professional.

If you want to become that person—the one that everybody immediately likes and wants to be around, the one people want to keep in touch with—then this will be the most important audiobook you’ll ever listen to. Do you find that even when you put yourself out there and try to make friends, it’s not easy? Do you wish you had more friends to spend time with doing things you love? Listen to How to Get People to Like You and immediately start using the methods inside to experience the wonderful world of thriving social circles and interactions.

Drawing on principles from psychology, communication theory, and everyday lived experience, Top 10 Simple Steps to Become a Better Listener breaks down the habits that block true listening—and offers small shifts that make a big difference. Each chapter addresses a core principle, from removing distractions and resisting the urge to interrupt, to developing empathy, reading body language, and embracing silence. You’ll discover how to shift your mindset from “waiting to talk” to “wanting to understand”—and why that change alone can radically improve the quality of your conversations.

As parents, we only want what’s best for our kids. But sometimes, what’s best for them might not always be fun or exciting. More often than not, parent-child conflicts result from grave shortcomings in listening and communication. Both child and parent might not feel understood properly by one another, resulting in arguments or rebellious behavior. However, much like most conflicts in the world, this can be solved by simply listening mindfully.

Have you ever found yourself in the middle of an argument with someone who just isn’t getting it? Most of us miss out on the visual emotive cues we see during direct interpersonal communication. Without these important context clues, we struggle to grasp the intent of the messenger and often the real meaning of the message. To make matters worse, our dependence on instant communication, like text messaging and email, has resulted in forgetting how to talk to one another in person.

Be a Phenomenal Listener takes you through the entire listening process. First it defines for you the different types of listening, so you can know which type of listening to use depending on your situation. Next, the audiobook goes over why listing is so important, and how great listening skills can make every part of your life better.
