1). Review the six types of nonlistening discussed in this chapter. Are any of them common in your communication? Make a plan to overcome this type of nonlistening you have engaged in. Describe the type of nonlistenging you engage in, and discuss how you plan to fix is.
I definitely have had my fair share of non-listening. In the past, I have used all 6 forms of non-listening. That may not sound very pleasant but i feel like each type of non-listening is essential for different times through out our lives. Pseudo-listening is not being an attentive listener but sometimes we have a lot to think about on our minds. We will always have stressful phases where we are crammed with midterms or hours of homework ahead of us. Usually, when we are this busy, we tend use monopolizing because there are some things in life that worry us. For example, a passing family member, breaking up in a long term relationship, losing a close friend, and lastly losing your job. I don't plan to overcome these types of non-listening because i know we cant always live our lives to listen to someone else when ours is not doing very well at the moment. Of course, i will try to listen as much as i can but if i'm in a situation where my life is in a crisis, i will take care of that.
