Productive Listening
Cancer Daily Horoscope You may feel spirited today and experience the desire to engage in lively conversations. You may also feel especially alert, which could help you express your opinions more clearly. While this could lead to some interesting discussions, you may also wish to give more attention to your listening skills so you can avoid coming across as overbearing or insensitive to others. One good way to do this is by encouraging others to do most of the talking. If you can control your urge to speak up and focus instead on listening to the messages of others, you will likely gain greater insights about friends and associates. You may also want to make the effort to listen to the messages beneath the words that others speak to you. Paying close attention to their body language and demeanor today will allow you to bring your communications to a new level of understanding.
Making an effort to listen to and understand others makes us better communicators. While we often think of communication as a tool for sharing thoughts and opinions with others, listening is also an important part of communication. Being a good conversationalist involves much more than speaking; it also involves actively listening to the person we are speaking to and asking insightful questions in response. We are then able to gain a better understanding of our discussion partners and communicate with them on a deeper level than we would otherwise. Choose to listen to others as much as you speak to them today, and there won't be room for misunderstandings.

We get our way with others by making them pay attention to us and then elicit a certain reaction from them to make ourselves feel fulfilled. The positive feelings we gain are won at the expense of the other person and this often causes imbalance and drama in our interpersonal relationships.
