Take the time to give someone your undivided attention when they are speaking to you. In today's world we think we are being efficient because we do many things simultaneously speak, eat, type.
We are not necessarily more efficient; also, if we are speaking to someone we are missing many things they are saying. Remember it may be the nonverbal clues we miss, what are they doing with their hands, where are their eyes focused, is there animation?
So as you go through your day and you are speaking to someone give them your undivided attention - that is a gift to them and to yourself as you may learn and hear more than the words are saying.
