We spend between 50 and 80 percent of our waking life communicating. On average, half of that communication time is spent in listening. Listening should not be an inactive activity.
"Most people listen without hearing" Leonardo da Vinci
"We are interested in others when they are interested in us"

Retire Your Bad Habits
There is an old truism that "if you keep doing what you've been doing, you'll keep getting what you've been getting".
We all know how easy it is to get into a rut. Challenge yourself to retire an old, worn out, unproductive habit and replace it with an empowering, enriching, and rewarding one.

Rob Gilbert
