Do You Understand?

Do You Understand?

When you are talking with someone, do you understand what they are saying before you start sharing your opinions, thoughts, and ideas? Or, do you generally want them to understand your point first? In Stephen R. Covey’s bestselling book, “The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People,” Habit 5 suggests: “Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood.”

This week’s Audio Coach shares this habit directly from Covey’s book and workbook, to help you recognize the value of truly listening, and how it can help you live a more effective life.
