Sometimes you can learn by teaching or training. By doing that, you learn how to do it better, and in the process maybe you re-learned something you may have forgotten.

- Listening is more than just hearing words; it's about understanding the meaning behind them. - The art of listening involves creating an environment where the other person feels heard and understood emotionally. - It requires replacing judgment with curiosity and providing a safe space for someone to express themselves without judgment. - Effective listening involves asking open-ended questions like "Tell me more" and giving the other person space to share their thoughts. - Listening is a crucial skill for building trust, finding common ground, and resolving conflicts, even in extreme situations like peace negotiations or discussions with extreme ideological differences.

Absolutely Simon. Valuing a person is ensuring they feel heard, seen, supported, connected and rewarded. From the thousands we've surveyed in workplaces they are desired in that order. Ironically, workplaces offer them in the opposite order.

Reminds me of this analogy. When two surfaces rub against each other, it just take one of them to be smooth to make the contact a frictionless one.

I’m listening to this so that my wife would be less frustrated with me at times. 😜 To truly listen to someone consistently is a learned skill. great video. Thanks.

How perfectly timed this message is for the fall of 2021. Brilliant.

This video needs so many more views. Replacing judgement with curiosity is something that I’m going to have to always remember.

What a remarkable example. I’ve never heard of this woman, thank you.

I have to say. I didn't know I needed to hear this, until I heard it. This is such a undervalued skill for people to have. Great video Simon!

I just wanted to add - and this isn't a rebuke or refutation but a recognition - that it's so hard to keep doing this over a longer time period (iterative, long term relationships) if the other person never reciprocates. The solution for me - frame it as work, as a moral good, as something worth doing *because it's the right thing to do* not because it's going to benefit me in any way.

E você domina bem essa arte Simon! :) Gratidão por compartilhar conosco. :)

This video Just changed my life forever.

Listening is the key to a healthy life. This process varies because some humans have been talking over others for far too long, while some other humans need encouragement to listen to their beautiful inner voice and speak ❤️

Such a great reminder especially at the time we are living now.

Brilliant! Amazingly timely and on point. I am learning... Right medium, right message, right time. Love & Light 😘

I had to listen to this 3 times and it reminded me of something I read in February about the difference between listening and hearing. Interesting

I have heard it said we should listen at least twice as much as we speak. Indeed, we were born with two ears and one voice box for a good reason!

From listening to respond to listening to understand is progress 👍 And once we understand we can take it far beyond by listening to appreciate 🥰 Because that’s when we truly feel heard and seen and can then unleash all our superpowers together 🤙

Thanks man. 1. Replace judgement with curiosity 2. Give them a safe space and make them feel heard I feel like I don't give people safe space a lot of the times. A friend, for example, has different views than me regarding marriage. So every time the topic of marriage is surfaced I just downright start bashing it. What I should do is ask her questions like, why does she think it's good institution etc. Secondly my brother, a lot of the times, he gives me safe space to talk about my values. But it is on the expense of his own safe space because my values are sometimes against his values. Thanks for the video man you're probably one of the extremely rare people in your industry that I listen to.

When we explore the “why” behind our need to judge… it can help. Determine what your are defending, what feels threatened. The more we can zoom out, see that others experience is valid for them, and the more self-assured (not self righteous though!) we become, the less we are compelled to engage in defensive posturing and judgment. The more dogmatic we are, the less psychologically flexible. It makes connection extremely difficult. Not everything is either/or, right/wrong, win/lose…that kind of thinking can ruin ability to listen deeply. It’s a competitive mindset vs cooperative, connective, or collaborative. We humans have many cognitive distortions, biases, and narratives (usually formed through conditioning early in childhood and then continuing through schooling, society, media, religion etc) that distort our perspectives. We often just blindly believe our way is “right”. Deep introspection and metacognition can allow for ability to dive deep and examine those beliefs. It can be a bit scary for some, but freeing too! I applaud you for being honest and realizing you don’t give people safe space. That has been the number 1 reason I’ve withdrawn from friendships and romantic relationships. Not feeling accepted (heard, seen and understood), but instead that I needed to modify to make the other person comfortable with a version of me that would be false. When we deny aspects of someone’s reality…it doesn’t go away, it just often goes underground & they don’t feel safe to share anymore. I wish you well. 💫

I just wanted to remind you of the importance of active listening. The art of listening involves more than just hearing words; it's about fully engaging with the person speaking and being present in the moment. By truly listening, you can build stronger connections with those around you and gain a deeper understanding of their perspectives. So, next time you're in a conversation, try to listen with intention and without judgment. It can make all the difference.

I actually don't like the term 'active' listening because it implies you need to DO something, while listening is a passive act. Apart from encouraging the other, you don't do anything. This is why I've come up with the term 'Receptive Listening'. Sounds good to you too?

How do you truly listen? 1. You listen to what someone is saying, i.e. their voice, their words, the data. 2. You observe how they're saying it, i.e. their expressions/body language and emotions to reveal "the why" behind them saying it. Let me ask again. How do you truly listen? Listen Observe Voice Expressions Love. The foundation of listening, truly listening, is an act of love. 👍
