Day 268 of 365
Listen First, Talk Later
“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:”
James 1:19 (KJV) |
What This Means for You
Three simple instructions that could transform every relationship you have: be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger. Most of us have that order reversed. We talk fast, listen poorly, and get angry even faster.
Try This Today
In your next conversation today, make a conscious effort to listen without interrupting. Do not plan your response while the other person is talking. Just listen. See what changes.
