The Principle of Respect\n<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

We spend years learning how to read, write, and speak. But what about listening? What training do we get that enables us to listen so we really, deeply understand others? Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then To Be Understood is about listening before we speak.<\/p>\n

Our default tendency is to try to get our point across. In doing so, we may ignore the other person completely, pretend that we\u2019re listening, or focus on the words and miss the meaning. At work, that means we might not fully understand a problem before we go to solve it. At home, it might mean we miss out on a chance at deeper connection with the people who matter most.<\/p>\n

Habit 5 is about learning to suspend our desire to respond automatically. It\u2019s about practicing a deeper and more intentional kind of listening. And then, when it is our time to be understood, it\u2019s about expressing our point of view in a clear and articulate way that keeps our audience\u2019s needs in mind.<\/p>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/span>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

Autobiographical vs. Empathic Listening<\/h2>

When we listen autobiographically, we turn the other person\u2019s story into our story. We filter everything they say through our own experiences, values, and perspective.<\/p>\n

When we listen empathically, we create space for others to share their perspective and emotions. And in the process we build a deeper sense of connection and understanding.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
