The ups and downs of listening.

Listening

Here are some random thoughts as usual. 

·         How well do I listen?

·         What do I have a hard time listening to?

·         How do I respond when I don’t want to listen, and does it depend on whom I’m listening to?

·         Do people listen to me?

·         When do they and when do they not?

·         What do they do when they don’t want to?

·         What is the appropriate way for a person to exit a conversation they don’t want to be part of?

I’ll answer those questions to the best of my ability later.  You might have some input.  But if you are going to say what a lousy listener, at least couch it in humor or as constructive criticism.
