“Meanings are not in words, meanings are in people.”
What a powerful statement.
“The average adult uses about 500 words most often, and each has between 20 and 25 meanings. So two people can use 500 words with the possibility of 12,500 meanings!” (Burley-Allen)
Perfecting the art of listening is difficult, but so necessary and extremely rewarding. People tend to think that power comes from speaking. I’m learning that the real power lies in effective listening!
Simply learning to listen, could change your marriage, your work environment your life! Be intentional about learning to listen, you’ll thank yourself later.
