There once was a wise old owl who lived in a tree. The less the owl talked the more he heard, the more he heard the more he knew. When the cops investigated a murder all he said was “who?”

That old owl is a legend. People should be like that owl. That owl is a G.O.A.T. Put some respect on the name owl. Because he knows everything in the forest and never gave it up.

In school, the kids who do the best in life aren’t always the brightest but they are the ones who listen. They pay attention to what is said. They are fairly quite in class. These are the kids that excel.

When you listen more and talk less you know what is being said. Who, what, where, and why is all heard by not saying a word. Listen is a essential life skill.

In a relationship, a key part of communication is listening to your spouse. Just talking at somebody isn’t communicating with your partner. It’s mansplaining your one-sided views without an opposing argument.

You can’t see where you are wrong if you over talking to everybody in your life. Listening equates to understanding, when you listen eventually you will understand. Being pigheaded and boarish won’t guarantee people will agree with you.

Just because you can keep people from talking to you doesn’t mean they aren’t listening to you. People heard enough of your point of view and were turned off by you. When you speak people listen, believe that.

What you say can be used against you. When you are going off bragging about the stuff you have, what vacation you decided to splurge on, people are listening. Even people who you never want to know your exploits.

Keeping quite and listening to what is being said around you will give you the advantage. If you know what has been said you know what the deal is about a lot. You can be like Kirby and throw it right back at em’.

Listening is hard to do in a conversation, you just have to let whoever wants to speak say their piece. If someone want to talk let them. Then if you want to impress them hit with a jewel of knowledge after they said what they had to say.

Listening has helped me a lot. Especially in my marriage. When my wife talks I listen, taking her words in and understanding what she is trying to say. So if she says we need to run an errand I know what is entailed for each specific outing.  Whether it’s going to the park or handling paperwork; I already know.

All she has to do is request a moment of my time. With her having my attention it wouldn’t want to be rude and over-talk or out-talk her. She wants my time, I am grateful that she chose me to talk to, so to be respectful I give her my undivided attention.

The more you listen the more you know, in a world where knowledge is power it’s essential to stfu and listen to what is being said. Some thing are only said once so pay attention. Listen to what people have to say they are just trying to empower you.
