The magic of active listening

...See more Hello, everyone, and I hope you have had a good day so far! I've been reflecting on the importance of active listening as a social skill and how it plays a vital role in our interactions. Before I learned such skills, I thought I was an excellent listener, with friends constantly sharing their concerns, but there seem to be better ways to support and let others feel heard.  I realised that I was used to hearing the words someone was saying and acknowledging them with sympathy instead of empathy. I've come to notice that the proper way to listen to others is to understand their messages and respond thoughtfully, the main purpose of which is to let others feel like they are being heard.  Here are some key aspects of active listening that I noticed: * presence: being fully present in the conversation without engaging in other activities. * empathy: understand the speaker's perspective and emotions instead of saying things like "That's too bad." * telling them you're listening: offering responses like "yep", "umm hmm" Mastering active listening could help support members in Cups and enhance my connections and interactions with others!  - Discussion questions -  * How does utilising active listening affect your relationship in the real world? * What challenges do you face when trying to practice active listening, and how do you overcome them? Would love to hear your insights ❤️

My journey of critical thinking

...See more Hello, everyone in the IDG community, and it's lovely to read everyone's posts ❤️ I found the course interesting and learned so much from it. Of the five domains discussed in the course, critical thinking is one of the skills that sticks out to me the most. I've heard the word "critical thinking" since my first year of college because it seems to be a central theme of my major. I've never realised that such a skill could also be a big part of our everyday lives since then.  Throughout the course, I've noticed that such skills could help in daily decision-making processes and, most importantly, long-term goal orientation and visioning, which I believe is one of the essential components. As a person who's always self-judging, I believe developing critical thinking can help weigh the pros and cons of options in choosing the best course of action, which is important in various situations.  The tips provided in the course are also extraordinarily valuable, and I aim to practice my critical thinking more.  * Exploring more literature regarding critical thinking, not just those required by my study. * Set long-term and achievable goals * Listen to different people's perspectives - Discussions - * What are some strategies you use to enhance your critical thinking skills in your personal or professional life? * Can you share an instance where critical thinking helped you navigate a complex situation? How did it change the outcome?
