LI can become easily distracted if the person I'm listening to is taking a long time to make a point. But when I remind myself to use active listening skills, I am able to toss aside this roadblock.
Through the years, I have developed the following tips to help me do that:
Your ears are for hearing... your mind is for listening.
Listen for ideas and central themes (even take notes).
Don't interrupt. Wait your turn to speak.
Circle any points in your notes that you want to emphasize when it's your turn.
Judge content... not delivery.
