It is the magic ingredient that forges real connections with others. People want good listeners in their inner circle, they want do business with them, they trust them and will share critical information with them.

Thank you to all of the dogs who have

listened to me bark over the years;

I always ended up feeling better.

Contents

All of my knowledge and abilities in the art of listening can be attributed to my dearly departed listening guru, a gold-colored, four-legged fur angel named Roamy; the funniest, smartest, and cutest being I have ever known. Roamys contributions to my life are with me every day and I miss him dearly.

The endless love and support from D.E. helped to make this possible; youre the best! Thank you, A.W., for your friendship, your support, and for pointing out the obvious to me; this is a book that Ive been writing my whole life. Thank you to the folks at HCI for loving dogs and helping me to spread the word about the importance of listening. Those who have believed in me and encouraged me over the years, in any of my endeavors, should know that they have had a positive impact on me and my work. I have been blessed to have had the experience of being truly listened to over the years, mainly by dogs, and a few humans along the way; and its always been a rewarding experience. Its now my desire to make the world a better place, one listener at a time.

Thank you to dogs everywhere. Without you there would be a lot less joy, happiness, and fun in the world.... and squeak toys and liver treats.

ROAMY , my listening guru. Here he is on his first Thanksgiving, fresh from the backyard and guilty as can bewith evidence of his infraction still on his nose. He may have denied knowing who was digging in the garden, but he sure listened to me when I asked him about it.

Have you ever talked to a dog? Not just the Whos a good boy? Spikes a good boy stuff, but really talked? About your struggles, your heartaches, your joys? Have you ever thrown self-consciousness to the wind and bared your soul to a canine friend?

If not, you might want to try it. No appointment necessary, no co-pay required. Well, maybe a walk or a treat...

If you have talked to a dog this way, how did it make you feel?

You probably felt free . Free to say whatever you wanted to say, without the burden of making logical sense, justifying your position, or having to tell an entertaining story. Free to feel whatever you needed to feel.

You probably felt unrushed . As if you had all the time in the world to speak your pieceand your listener wasnt checking his watch or cell phone and edging toward the door.

No doubt you felt accepted and un-judged . You could have confessed to a triple homicide and your listener wouldnt have held it against you.

Odds are you felt supported , as if your listener was on your side. You felt positive, compassionate energy coming your way.

You probably felt as if you were the center of another beings world, the most important thing in that beings life, at least at that moment. You almost certainly felt a connection with that being: a life-to-life connection uncomplicated by abstract concepts, such as credit card bills or dinner plans or the fight you had last night.

Most of all, you felt heard . Received. Taken in. Though your listener may not have understood the words you were literally saying, he heard you the person behind the words and feelings. And so you felt complete in your communication.

When was the last time you felt that way talking to a fellow human being?

When was the last time someone felt that way after talking to you ?

Couldnt the world use a little more of this kind of listening? A lot more?

Real Connection: Where Did It Go?

We live in the Era of Connectivityor so were told. Over the past few decades, trillions of technology dollars have been invested in developing cool new ways for humans to connect with one another. With each new connectivity platform that emergescell phones, chat rooms, e-mail, voicemail, instant messaging, texting, Skype, Facebook, Twitter, online gaming, etc.the community of mankind grows closer to us. Our cell phone and e-mail contacts often number in the hundreds, and many of us have hundreds, or even thousands, of LinkedIn connections, Facebook friends, and/or Twitter followers. We hold the world, almost literally, in the palm of our hands. How unbelievably awesome!

Well... maybe...

So how are we using all this new technology? Do we suddenly have more meaningful things to say to one another? Are we breaking new ground in our personal and business relationships? Have we deepened our connection to humanity at large? Do we have more intimate friends?
