“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak. Courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.”
Sir Winston Churchill
Talking is easy. Listening is hard.
The challenge for all of us is that we want to control, demonstrate our knowledge and capabilities, and have the last word.
Sometimes the best demonstration of power comes from shutting your mouth and opening your mind to the thoughts and perspectives of another.
What is the downside? You just might learn something new.
