If they finish talking and then they expect me to respond on the fly without a long awkward pause, at one point I have to start thinking about my side, which interrupts my active listening!pechluck (@pechluck)http://twitter.com/pechlucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368077977372938482.post-33244969610679815932013-07-30T06:49:43.000-07:002013-07-30T06:49:43.000-07:00I had to stop by your blog because I see we commen...I had to stop by your blog because I see we comment on many of the same ones =) I think listening, or just paying attention to one thing at a time in general, is on the decline. I think that recording your conference call shows that you're a problem solver more than anything, so good job!Laurenhttp://laurenm10.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-368077977372938482.post-81629499623021935072013-07-30T07:51:09.000-07:002013-07-30T07:51:09.000-07:00People are CRAZY who don't let others listen, ...People are CRAZY who don't let others listen, digest, etc. to other viewpoints. We are really open here at work and we study each other's personality profiles for this exact reason.

My mind definitely wonders when I'm listening and I need to some how stop the wandering and listen intently.
