Listen Later

Are you a good listener - or are you a half-ass listener?


In this solo episode of Habits and Hustle, I chat about why listening skills are one of the most underrated skills for building strong relationships, whether it be in business or your personal life. I give you three tips for becoming a better listener as well as explore the question of whether women are better listeners than men.


What we discuss:


01:35: Are you half-ass listening?

02:41: Tip #1: Make eye contact

03:27: Tip #2: Ask questions

04:02: Tip #3: Don’t interrupt people

07:57: Are women better listeners than men?

10:34: Are breaks in conversations okay?


Key Takeaways:


  • Learning how to be a good listener is crucial for your success in both your personal and professional life. Listening to people when they talk is how you learn about opportunities, build relationships, and strengthen bonds. If you can’t do that, you’re missing out on a lot of benefits.


  • Your body language is just as important as what you say when the person is done talking. Make sure to show the engagement on your part and interest in what they are saying as you listen to them talk. And when it is your turn to talk, make sure you’re answering in a way that shows you listened to them.
