Are you surprised or frustrated when people don't listen? How often have you tried to share with your family and friends the amazing things you've spent your time and money learning, only to be disappointed by their lack of interest? At best, do they smile and nod with glazed eyes and closed ears? At worst do they berate you for wasting your time and money and end by reminding you that you're stupid? Does this upset you? Do you try harder, or start a debate (fight)? Does talking more, longer or harder ever work at all? What if you could share your insights without saying a word? If you'd like to find out, ask “What if saying nothing was the greatest contribution I could be?” The shut up, nod, smile, listen and ask questions. It may take only a few minutes – or it may take decades – for the other person to stop talking and say “You're different. What is that?” And that's your invitation to talk.
