When I simply Listen
I am more conscious of what the speaker is saying
I matter
I get sleepy
I feel I am doing what I am meant to do
I seem to lose focus and need to catch myself
When I simply Listen
I learn a little bit about a person
I am more engaged in the story
I got more understanding
I hear what isn’t said, and become intuitive
When I simply Listen
I hear what is said and I acknowledge it
I become part of the story.
When I simply Listen
I feel connected with the storyteller
I feel grateful
A whole new world opens up from a whole new vantage point
When someone truly listens to me
They understand the heart of the message behind my story
I fulfill them with richness
I feel anxious and sleepy
When someone truly listens to me
I feel empowered
I need interaction from them, not silence
They can see things that I don’t see in myself
I feel more comfortable and confident
I feel as if my point was made and I was engaging.
When someone truly listens to me
I see that I am heard
I am comfortable being expressive
I feel like my story is important
I feel important
I feel powerful
When someone truly listens to me
I can tell
