all of this advice is downstream of / generated by something more fundamental. what is it? if i had to name it, maybe "understand, deeply, that the person you're listening to is real, exists as much as you do, and is a person you could love"https://twitter.com/emilyca5/status/1149165769067884544 …
Tips to be a better listener:
Listen quietly; show you’re present with nods not words
Don’t be thinking of what to say next
Allow for pauses & silence
Ask questions to help the speaker deepen or expand
Don’t feel compelled to fix or give advice
You got this
