''Listen and Silent are spelt with the exact same letters'' - Unknown

You cannot listen and talk simultaneously, you must do one at a time.

Many people do not actually know how to listen effectively. They think they do, but they do not. If someone is speaking to you, ensure you hear them as well as listen to them.

In life, you will find that many people do not listen to you... they simply wait for you to finish talking - whilst remaining quiet. Believe me, if you study and grasp this concept you will become an exceptional conversationalist.
