Listen with intent from "summary" of Old School Love by Michael "Hollywood" Hernandez

Listening with intent means more than just hearing the words that are being spoken to you. It requires you to be fully present in the moment, to focus on what is being said without allowing your mind to wander. It means giving your undivided attention to the person who is speaking, showing them that you value what they have to say. When you listen with intent, you are not just waiting for your turn to speak. You are actively engaged in the conversation, absorbing the information being shared with you. You are attentive to the speaker's tone of voice, their body language, and the emotions that they are expressing. You are seeking to understand not just the words that are being said, but the underlying meaning behind them. Listening with intent requires you to set aside your own thoughts, opinions, and judgments. It means putting yourself in the other person's shoes, trying to see the world from their perspective. It involves asking clarifying questions, seeking to deepen your understanding of what is being communicated to you. When you listen with intent, you are showing the other person that you respect them and value their thoughts and feelings. You are building a connection based on empathy and understanding. You are creating a space where open and honest communication can flourish. In a world that is often filled with distractions and noise, listening with intent is a rare and valuable skill. It is a way of showing love and care for those around you, of truly being present for them in a meaningful way. It is a practice that can strengthen relationships, deepen connections, and foster a sense of mutual respect and understanding.
