All valid points, I particularly like the one about pausing before reply. I find that if I reply too quickly, we tend to clash and two people say things at once. And then they both stop, or one backs down and isn't able to get their idea out (immediately). Herbert’s last blog post..Connect your iPod or MP3 Player to your Car — For Less than $20

@Hi George,

It’s great that you’ve already been using these tips!

@Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for sharing the article with your SU friends.

@Hi Michele,

I’m glad you like these tips. Thank you for stumbling it!

@Bunny got Blog,

I’m glad you find the tips useful. Thank you for your comment.

@Hi Mike,

You’re right. We should tell people more explicitly that we’re genuinely interested. In fact, sometimes I do tell people, “That’s interesting. I’d like to know more.”

@timethief,

I’m glad that you enjoyed reading this article. I like the theme of your blog. It’s very clean and easy on the eyes.

Thank you all for giving your feedback!

Cheers~

Mark

I really enjoyed reading this excellent advice. Remarkably I blogged on the subject of listening from the heart just a week ago, and Mark’s piece is a validation and enhancement of that theme.

You might even go so far to say, "Hey, I'm really interested in what you have to say..." Go figure. If you can tell them genuinely and you do have interest, tell them. Mike King’s last blog post..8 Steps for Acting on Inspiration

What a great article, Mark! I love these tips. Sometimes it's hard to remember to pay attention. Life is full of distractions, but we wouldn't want to make anyone feel badly because we weren't paying attention to what they're saying! Gave this a stumble. I know others will find value in it--I certainly do! *smiles* Michele Michele’s last blog post..25 Fun Facts You Didn’t Know About Me

Hi Mark,

Thank you again for taking the time to write this guest post. This is a perfect example of things many of us know but dont put into practice and it is a good reminder.
I have sent this out to quite a few of my SU friends. Hopefully you get a few more responses.

Cheers,
Jeremy

It's interesting. I used to own and teach a paramedic school. I had to coach the students on good history taking techniques and I used a lot of these tips! Good one. George Tumblemoose’s last blog post..Writers: Does a library intimidate or inspire?
