How Well Do We Listen ?
Most of us are poor listeners because we
simply cannot be quiet long enough to really let
the other person tell us what is on their mind.
Another obstacle to good listening is the seem
ingly natural tendency to
judge the other person.
However, more often than
not, when someone wants
to talk to us, they really just
need us to listen uncriti
cally, and that means
accepting what they tell us
at face value without judg
ing them. A good listener
will accept the other per
son, and more importantly
resist the temptation to
judge, criticize, or even
offer advice. For generally
unless the person explicitly
asks for advice, it is usually wisest to keep your
advice to yourself. The psychologist Carl Rogers
described the quality that most typified the good
therapist (as well as the good listener) as
“unconditional positive regard.” That is, the good
listener is someone who regards the person
positively, no matter what they might tell them.
And although in some cases this can be
extremely difficult to do, perhaps nothing comes
closer to Jesus’ warning to “judge not, and you
will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not
be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven”
(Luke: 6:37).
