"Third, after you pose a question, be prepared to listen with your whole heart, your whole mind, and your whole soul. Don’t use the time your subject is talking to think through your next question, review your notes, draw conclusions about what is being said, or– God forbid– form an opinion of the other person. We all get distracted, but catch yourself if you find yourself losing focus. Your body language when you listen is as important as the questions you ask. And your body language will always betray when you’re not fully engaged."
