Listen And Learn
When you listen, you may learn something new.
Wise words from the Dalai Lama and encouragement for the listeners in our midst.
Those of us who choose a quiet approach of observing, listening, and holding space for others are often misunderstood. It takes courage and conviction to go against the noisy norm we see in much of work and life and to risk being labelled as rude, arrogant or uncaring.
Of course it might be said we have two ears for a reason, and when used with curiosity, intention and care, listening is a critical skill to foster learning and connection.
This weekend you’ll find me watching, listening and learning; how about you?
