It’s true, even if something isn’t important or interesting to us, if it is to the one we are interacting with, we can listen attentively anyway. Learn to make what is important to others, important to us at that moment just because it’s important to them. This doesn’t mean specifically but an underlying, general skill to be able to truly tune into what a person is saying to us and care enough about the person to care about what the person cares about at that moment. For example, if my friend is into the latest trends but I’m not generally, I can still make it important to me at that moment s/he talks to me, it doesn’t mean I have to become up to date on all the latest trends or care about it when my friend isn’t talking to me. Some people are naturally good at this but whether or not we are, we can strengthen our attentive listening skills. 

“You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.” ~Sarah Ban Breathnach

“We meet no ordinary people in our lives.” ~ C.S. Lewis
