Each discussion, piece of writing, or speech offers an opportunity to learn something different or new.
Do we learn when we talk or when we listen?
Casting assumptions early or conjuring up a response alters what others share before we fully hear.
While it is easy to listen since you do not have to do anything better to do than pay attention, we continue to disappoint at it, for others and ourselves. For them, recognition is rare, and we have little growth.
Save your breath, and enjoy the moment since you never know what you may get from taking it in while fully understanding what you want to say.
