The Art of Listening

The April 25 Epic Living Hour radio show will focus on the art of listening.  I’ve found that listening is a key that unlocks places you’ve never imagined you’d have access to.  I’m not talking about everything profound, but the things that form your legacy.  For example, listening to a 7 year-old child who wants to tell you about the wonder of swimming in the summertime.  I had that opportunity yesterday, and I’m glad I listened. 

It also has to do with your career/business life.  Are you catching all that you should?  Is your hearing blocked by your focus on the material at-hand?  Is something or someone seeking your attention (full)?  Have you started to reinvent yourself today?

Diamonds (the most valuable things in life and work) will not scream for your fancy.  Diamonds are subtle and beautiful all at the same time.  You must listen to find them.  Tune in tomorrow at 12:30 PM EDT to learn more.  Details can be found here.

The below scene from The Legend of Bagger Vance will give you some further context (pay close attention to the part with Bobby Jones).

  1. As mastershake would say – a metaphor for life.
    The Field = Life
    The Practice Swings/Searching = Finding your destiny
    Finding It/Settling Into It = Living your destiny
    Different Shots = Different destinies
    Authentic Shot = Your own perfect destiny
