Sometimes our biggest noise comes from the conversations in our head of what we want to say while pretending to listen to the other person that is talking to us.

"The biggest communication problem is we do not listen to understand. We listen to reply."

5 Exercises to improve listening; 1. Silence. Three minutes a day of silence. Reset and recallibrate and allow yourself to hear the silence again. 2. The Mixer. In noisy environments, listen and try to figure out how many channels you can hear. How many individual channels you are listening to. 3. Savoring. Learn to enjoy mundane sounds (tumble dryer, coffee machine). The "hidden choir". 4. Listening positions. You can move your listening position to what's appropriate to what you're listening to. 5. RASA. Receive- pay attention to the person Appreciate- Make little noises like "hmm" "OK" Summarize- Use the word "so" Ask- Ask questions afterwards

For all my life i wanted to be a better listener that is why i searched in youtube "How to be a good listener". Listeners basically know most of the things that other people don't, and Julian has beautifully explained why. Listeners are connected with both the physical world and time, since sound is reflected in a medium, thus we can predict the space, and sound disappears through time. According to Julian, there are exercises to improve the listening skills. 1. Silence. Three minutes of silence a day can reset our ears and to re-calibrate. In another words, it is an a very good training to make our ears and brain neutral from any dirt thus I believe will also improve mood. 2. The mixer. In a very noisy situation, observe carefully how many channels of sound can we hear. It's a great exercise to determine the quality of our listening. 3. Savoring. it's about enjoying mundane sound. Mundane sounds are everywhere around us that could be a washing machine, dryer, rotating fan, distant television sound and etc. 4. Listening positions. 5. An acronym. Taken from Sanskrit word 'RASA' which means 'Essence' or 'juice'; R=Receive A=Appreciate S=Summarise A=Ask I don't write this to expect people would read or listen, I just write this for a reminder for myself and to write back the essential lessons I learned from Julian.

I thought I was the only one that found joy at listening to things that may just sound like noise like a clothes dryer or the movement of traffic. The idea of noise, both audio and visual is key to understanding how to filter appropriate and meaningful information. I believe that the world needs better listeners! When we listen to understand, and not to respond, we can all live a little better! Thanks Mr. Treasure and thanks TED!

"Every Human being needs to listen consciously in order to live fully.." I love this..saw this video 5 years ago and it never gets old.

If we can teach listening in our schools, we can change the world in the long run. Great point!

What an honest and sobering talk about life. Fascinating information that makes complete sense. Listening is really important for our life.

I wish I had come across this video when I was younger, I always felt something was off about me turns out I have unconsciously poor listening abilities. Now I'm conscious about it, I wanna immidately work on it.

I can't believe that this was posted 9 years ago, and now I'm here for an assignment. Anyway, great talk!

watching this because of my college communications class and I truly think that this is something everyone should hear!

I have believed, since I was young that listening (really listening) is truly important and yet I am terrible at listening and, I have to be honest, have done nothing about it. I am so glad I have come across this and thank you Mr Treasure you are.

I never been so engrossed in someone talking....I wish I had teachers like this when I was in school.

I completely agree! Great talk and I`m all for listening being taught in schools! Seek first to understand as opposed to being understood...this only happens through listening, and through listening we understand, through understanding we learn, and through learning we grow and ultimately become better individuals and a better society.

Consciously aware of my decreasing listening abilities. It's so important to listen well to show respect and care for others. Glad to see this. Hope we can have better communication.

Love this topic. "If you are thinking of what to say next you are not listening, you are just thinking of what to say next" is one of my favourite coaching tools.

Listening also means feeling cared for and feeling loved. Without such then an individual slowly begins to die from within.

After watching this video, I agree that someone's listening skill is something we need to appreciate. Although listening feels easy, being able to focus on what the other person is saying or just hearing the voices of the environment around us is not a simple matter. As Julian said "conscious listening creates understanding" makes me believe that listening can prevent bad things from happening. Believe it or not, by listening we can become more patient and less selfish people.

It's definitely a great lecture. Julian reminds us that we should be a patient listener to our surrounding people.

Listening is important both academically and in everyday life. For academics, listening carefully helps me to learn more efficiently and succeed in college. In everyday life, listening promotes understanding among people. I totally agree with this lecture!

Your words are music to my ears. Such a nice talk!

Having good listening skills is very important for teachers to develop empathy and understanding with the students, negotiating with students and defusing any potential classroom conflicts. Paying attention, showing that you're paying attention restating and using a nonjudgmental approach allows for active listening skills. The 5 ways of listening that were provided here are very beneficial.

I am currently teaching Critical Thinking to students in allied health programs. I am anxious to share this talk with my students! Thank you TED and Julian Treasure.

Julian is a genius, very articulate, he pointed out the big hurdles in speaking effectively and listening attentively. ..well done

The thing about losing our listening is so true. This is exactly Georg Simmel's approach to life in the city. We have too many stimuli around us that we can't focus on so instead of trying to listen, see or even acknowledge everything we end up doing the opposite. We are gradually becoming more indifferent to everything around us. I mean even the news, with tragedies happening all the time the feeling of empathy is fading away.

Gosh, i love this man.

I discovered this talk or speech in a song (Naxxos - Anyama), watched it now in full lenght and I just wanted to say thank you, Julian Treasure! This is so important for the world and I give my best to spread the message - thank you, thank you, thank you

I think this is one of the better TED talks. I know from my own experience that what he talks about here with silence and differentiated listening is improving not only my listening per se but the quality of my life - it simply makes me rest more as a person, and I believe that I become a better friend because of it. That being said I am still not good at it but I know that when I am working with my listening I feel better.

Great talk, it is definitely important for us to improve the listening skills as a student, and more importantly, as a friend to others.

But what happens when you are only able to listen all the time without giving the chance to be listened ? I've always been frustrated by how people always cut me off when i want to share my point, especially in group conversations.

Yes very true we are losing our listening , this fact is acknowledged by everyone . This TED x talk has given insight about conscious listening , ways of improving it . Real treasure - if everyone listens to self & others , it will really transform & give solution to all our daily & worldly problems .

I have been saying and doing this for years but he summarised it beautifully.

Has any one of you noticed how clearly he tslked. Every word is understood of one actually listened. This video is a test of one's listening skills itself.

amazing ted talk wow

Many years later and this is still very true.

Being unafraid of silence is the key to listening. Our world is noisy, however, solitude is whispering to those who hear it and know themselves. This is a great talk and I am interested.

The beauty of listening to the world around us is that it takes you away from the incessant chatter of your thoughts, try it.

Communication is about human connection. Being able to communicate effectively is one of the best life habits. Good listening is among the most important principles of great communication. It is common for most people to listen not with the intent of understanding, but with the intent of replying. Listening with the intent to understand is to fully understand that person intellectually and emotionally. You ensure that you understand by repeating back to them what they said and mirroring their emotions. By doing so, you help them structure their own thoughts and feelings. This type of listening can lead to truly open and trusting communication.

Watching this video has been a wonderful experience for me. I enjoyed all aspects of it and i particularly liked that you summarized the act of listening into those 4 steps : Receive, appreciate, summarize, ask. I sincerely hope you keep uploading more videos like this one.

absolutely love this speach! Outstanding job!

The issue is how to get those that don't listen to listen to this session. Most viewers of TED are competent listeners I would think.

i'm guilty of spending most of my time contemplating and formulating responses in my head rather than listening to the other person during a conversation. the pressure of avoiding silence is too great for me (it's known to be a conversational killer in my experience) even though i know silence is something valuable when you utilize it well. so you start creating responses in your head, but by the time you think of something interesting to reply with, you realize you missed a good portion of what the person just said. the problem is, to maintain a rich conversation you need listening skills, but also speaking skills and i usually fall short of one or the other (sometimes both) i can never seem to find success in both at the same time.

I think that people would appreciate you more for your listening than your "killer punchlines" and would in the end want to listen to you in return - making your (so you say) lack of cpnversational skills irrelevant or negligeble. If they don't want to listen to you in return then you can just not hang out with them. It's probably their loss. :)

It is important to be a skilled listener because we need to learn knowledge from the lecture and we need to know what others are telling us during chatting. It is important to practice distinguishing pausing, intonation, volume and transition words of the sounds. This helps us to judge which part of the information is important and helps us to figure out the main ideas.

This is one of the best resource I have come across online. These are life changing speeches from the TED Community. I am a fan and a subscriber now, just awesome!

To those who searched up for this. I love you

What stood out to me specifically was how it is hard for us to pay attention to quiet. I find that to be especially true in everyday life, and I can think of times recently when this has been true for me. It makes me think of how people today are uncomfortable with the idea of quiet and meditation. I fully intend to attempt to try the exercises mentioned in the video. Many of them reminded me of a mindfulness activity from my English class where we had to pay deep attention to one sense per day.

Julian, you are incredible. thank you for this.

Sonority of voice is equal to the time and meaning in our conversation. Definitely agree with that.

This was beautiful to listen to. A great Orator. And was a treat to listen. Thank you and god bless.

4:10 is where he starts the how to improve listening.. fyi

The tumble dryer is a waltz...

I love the way he speaks!

Love the way he talks and the simple steps he suggested to listen better!

The 6th way: stop using chat applications like whatsapp, fb messanger, and other chat application these days people prefer electronic words in chat, even emotions are conveyed in smiley, so much of energy is conserved as no speaking takes place, and the moment you get to speak you forget to listen,

I love the mundane noises my parents made when they arguing about their marriage.

One of the mindfulness exercises I practice is one of the things Julian Treasure recommends in this great talk: stop and try to identify all of the sounds that are surrounding you right now. Listen to each one individually.

I greed, a world where none is listening to no one is a scary place to be in human to human relationships needs understanding the other persons view point and well wishing and it all starts with listening but before making people listen we need to learn how to talk.so that people will listen. I started making a prayer for this person from the moments i heard him for the first time what a way of speaking.

the video: tries to help me with my listening skills me: *gets distracted and goes on phone*
