Why Active Listening is Crucial for Healthy Relationships
Through the passage of time, I have learned that one tool which is most effective in improving relationships is taking time to listen attentively. In a world where speaking seems to be preferred by all, listening carefully has become an art that few possess. When my relationships were still young, I would find myself concentrating on how to respond instead of actually taking in what the other person had to say. It was only after I practiced active listening that I saw true improvements in how I connected with people.
