Midnight thoughts 🖤
It feels like people are more interested in speaking and interjecting rather than listening. It's sad to see that people don't have the patience to let someone speak their heart out. Sometimes all a person needs is for someone to listen to them. Most of us don't have an ulterior motive (looking for help, asking for a favour or flirting) while talking with a person, we only want them to listen to our story. When you listen more than you speak, people are more willing to talk to you and find it easier to open up to you. When you speak more than you listen, it makes it harder for people talk about other things because you are talking more about yourself. People like others who can sympathize and empathize with them rather than people who try to make themselves look better in every conversation. If you are able to master the “listen more than you speak” trait, then you will find yourself attracting many people who want to be friends with you.
