We are all eager. Eager to hear ourselves talk. So eager, that many times, we interrupt. We just can’t wait!
This isn’t so good for relationship building, and business in general. Listen to this 82 second “Great Point Podcast” to understand why…
And after that quick listen, here’s your Monday challenge: Count to 5 (to yourself) when you think the other person has finished speaking BEFORE sharing your comment. One of two things will happen:
- That person will continue speaking
- You will get a chance to share your thoughts WITHOUT talking over the other person.
Either way, you’ve shown respect.
