你善于倾听吗?

Nov 19, 2023

每个人都要快快地听,慢慢地说。(雅各书1:19)

有人打趣说:“上帝给了我们两只耳朵和一张嘴巴,是要我们少说多听。”这意味着你要“快快地听,慢慢地说。”良好的倾听能建立人际关系。然而,良好的倾听者并不是天生的,而是由于后天的培养!因此,下面的几个建议可以提高你倾听的能力:一、倾听而不打断对方。抑制试图插话、抢话的冲动。控制自己,只要倾听。二、为了理解对方而倾听。尽量理解对方的观点、感觉、想法和需求。善于倾听就是听别人的真实想法、意思或感受,而不是你想象他们如何。与其猜测,不如发问:“我的理解正确吗?你的意思是……?你觉得……?”换句话说,不要假定,要核实。三、倾听而不论断。不要急于下结论。如果他们所说的不太合乎情理,继续倾听。“未听先答的人,自显愚昧和羞辱。”(箴言18:13)当你多一点倾听,就有可能听出意思来。四、倾听而不纠正、反驳或贬低。“事情不应该是这样的”或“你所期望的是什么?如果你还没有……”或“你就是太敏感了”这类说法会使对方产生戒备,停止沟通。五、让对方觉得有价值。把他们的观点和感觉当作要人的有效表达来接纳。“如果我的理解正确,你是在想……感觉……,对吗?”让他们帮助你和他们达成共识。“考虑到你所诉说的,我能明白你为什么会有这样的感觉。”这个回应很有效,能够提高他们的信心,并且愿意考虑你可能提供的解决方案。
