The care we pay when listening to others outline their thoughts and ideas tends to pay off when these individuals come to us for guidance and assistance, since we are then well-equipped to offer our counsel and encouragement. When we do not pay attention, we cannot give the people we encounter the aid they so desperately need until we have had them retell their individual stories. To listen carefully is to show others that we respect their thoughts and feelings, and care deeply enough for them that we are willing to give a conscious ear to their woeful tales. Our diligence will give comfort to those who come to us for support and provide them with the assurance that we will do our best to help them. Your attentive manner and ability to listen actively will endear you to the individuals who seek out your wisdom and advice today.
