📚2: How to Listen Without Stripping Away the Other Person's 'Vitality' - Reading 'Why Are Successful People Good Listeners?' (2) -

Prologue
- Introduction -

Hello, I'm Tochamin.
I usually read for about 30 minutes a day.
In doing so,I have condensed the things that left an impression on me and the lessons I learned
into tips for living!
I hope they are useful in your daily life too♪

This time, I will think about how to listen in a way that protects the 'other person's strength'✨

※ Please also take a look at this article for the reasons why I continue reading and what I learn (^^)!!

Chapter.1
- Reading Details -

Chapter.2
- Building the Strength to Endure 'Not Knowing' -

When you feel like agreeing with a story from someone you are not familiar with,
take a breathbefore responding.

By building the strength to endure a state of 'not knowing',
you become a good listener with a big heart!

Chapter.3
- Giving the Initiative to the Other Person -

If you control (interrogate) them with a way of listening where the answer is decided to some extent,
the person speaking will not feel comfortable talking.

When it is your turn to listen, give the initiative to the other person
and create an atmosphere where they feel good talking!

Chapter.4
- Acknowledging Spontaneity -

People'smotivation increases
when their spontaneity is acknowledged.

Instead of forcing or controlling them,
acknowledge their attitude of starting things on their own!

Chapter.5
- Why Good Listeners Are Trusted -

The reason good listeners are trusted is because
they are people who do not strip away the other person's vitality.

People who vent their complaints and anger at someone who is not even involved
are in a state of being fully prepared to drain the other person's energy,
and neither agreement nor empathy is necessary.

Talking with people
expresses that person's vitality.
It is important not to strip away that strength, and not to let others strip it away.

By showing understanding of the other person's story,
you can satisfy their needs
and become someone who can give them vitality,
which leads to trust!

Epilogue
- Summary of This Time -

Through my reading today,
I decided not to be afraid of the 'I don't know' within myself
and to face it properly.

Don't judge the other person's story halfway through; give them the lead.
Just doing that changes the atmosphere.
I deeply realized that listening is not about taking away,
but about drawing out strength.

When you listen to someone,
are you supporting them?

Next time,
I will think about what it means to 'listen in silence'🧘‍♂️
