listening

I am not sure how many times I need to relearn this lesson.
LISTENING.

I go through phases when I think it's important, then I become super educated about something (or at least FEEL super educated) and start ignoring other people because they.are.wrong.

Well, other people are not always wrong. Mostly we have a difference of opinion, one of us is mis/under/wrongly/overly informed and it leads to 'noise' in the communication process.

Listening is JUST as important, if not more so, than saying what you know or feel.
I need to work on this again.
I need to be the listener I once was, and then some.

Learning to communicate properly is a learning process... and can have it's falls. Hopefully I've learned the listening lesson enough and I wont forget it.
