Ep.4/ Relationships
how do you relate to yourself and others? this episode explores how relationships shape our lives.
LISTEN NOW
The first step to start off any interaction is to decide to pay attention to the other person in the form of listening and observing. Let people finish what they are saying to you without cutting them off.
Good relationships depend a lot on how we listen to people, while observing their body language.
We must decide to Pay Attention to what the other person is saying, without interruption.
Decide to hold on to what you want to say, until the other person ends their thought process.
How much value do you place on the other person’s interests?
The other person should feel that you value them, and you appreciate what they have to say.
While you listen, ask yourself – What does this person want me to hear?
We have to stop reading meanings into what we are hearing, rather we must listen attentively.
Sometimes it’s a smile, or a nod. It shows the other person that you are attentive.
Could be that the person just wants someone to share a thought with.
Maybe they need some advice. But unless we listen, we will miss the point of the discussion.
Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are other people out there that this person could have gone to.
They value what you think, and what you may have to say, therefore you should also show that you value them.
Ask questions to make sure that you understand what they are saying.
“Do I understand correctly that you are saying such and such?”
If you repeat the words to them, then the answer will determine whether the conversation is moving in the right direction.
Otherwise, that may be a good sign that you have missed the flow of the story.
Be clear, be confident, and be friendly, don’t overthink it. The aim is to make the situation feel right for both of you right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
