7 ways that you are not listening:

1. You say you understand.
2. You say you have an answer before you've heard the problem.
3. You cut someone off before they finish speaking.
4. You finish someone's sentences.
5. You're dying to tell me something while I am talking.
6. You share your experiences instead.
7. You refuse my thanks.

Your homework assignments - 

1. Notice when you are not listening.
2. Accept gratitude.
