Hear. Understand. Connect.

Active listening isn’t just about hearing words — it’s about understanding them. Here’s how to do it:

1️⃣ Be Fully Present — Put away distractions and focus on the speaker.

2️⃣ Practice Reflective Listening — Paraphrase key points to confirm understanding.

3️⃣ Ask Open-Ended Questions — Encourage deeper conversation and clarity.

By mastering these skills, you’ll improve relationships, avoid misunderstandings, and become a more empathetic communicator. Start practicing today — your future self will thank you!

Until next time, listen deeply and lead with empathy!

P.S.: Share this with a friend who’s always "half-listening" — they’ll thank you later!
