			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today the world is full of distractions. Each moment of our life is filled with multiple impulses and quite frankly will drive any one crazy over a period of time. So it is very natural for all of us to develop a certain level of aloofness towards such impulses.</p>
<p> It is  a natural process to disregard an undesirable repetetive noise.</p>
<p>In the same way, our brain teaches us to disregard the unrequired information and focus on what we deem as necessary. While in itself, this is a fantastic thing to have on our side,  it also takes away from us our capacity to be human, which is to <a href="http://www.communication-skills-4confidence.com/active-listening.html">experience life.</a> Many parents often complain that their children do not <a href="http://www.communication-skills-4confidence.com/active-listening.html">listen</a> to them.</p>
<p> My question to  you is &#8220;<a href="http://www.communication-skills-4confidence.com/active-listening.html"> what have done to train them to listen to you</a>?&#8221;</p>
<p> and 96% of the time none of them would have trained their kids to listen properly and will readily give an excuse that they never were trained to listen to others.</p>
<p> Unfortunately that is true. But that does not mean we should not do it ourselves. It is out duty to<a href="http://www.communication-skills-4confidence.com/active-listening.html"> train our kids to listen. </a>Listen with intent and without judgement. Learning to listen actively is a very important factor in a  child&#8217;s growth because it the very foundtation of the human ability to understand, emphatize and think.</p>
<p>Starting today, I would encourage everyone to train themselves and their kids to listen actively and learn to listen with a suspended judgement.</p>
<p>How to learn to listen?</p>
<p> Well here is a good article to get started&#8230; <a href="http://www.communication-skills-4confidence.com/active-listening.html">Listen Actively</a></p>
<p>Cheers</p>
