I remember years back reading a book called "How to win friends and influence people". One of the chapters stated to influence people( I used to sell mutual funds) you need to be a good listener. Do you think that you are a good listener? Do you think that you talk too much? When I meet somebody new and if they talk about themselves for five straight minutes, I say that I have got things to do. Do you catch yourself talking too much and then start asking the other person questions? Or do you think that you talk too much?
