Thought For the Day - Are You Listening?

"I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening. Most people never listen"

-- Ernest Hemingway

I learned listening in a few unique ways. I studied the Meisner technique of acting where we would do the "Repetition Game", an exercise where you would have to listen and repeat what was said over and over until you could then change it . The exercise taught me active listening. I also perfected listening when I was conducting oral history interviews.
