SENIOR ^ CITIZEN'S CORNER Time to Listen Are you a talker or a listener? A conversation requires two par­ ticipants. Everyone can be a talker but it takes extra attention to be a good listener. Most people listen far below their potential, specialists say But everyone could be a better listener by following some guidelines: --Start with a positive attitude about listening to what others are saying Concentrate on the per­ son who is talking rather than thinking your own thoughts and worrying about your own prob­ lems. Concentrate on the mes­ sage and try to understand ex­ actly what the person is saying. --Think about wliat is be­ ing said as to the accuracy and source. --Keep an open mind and let the speaker finish what he is saying. --Be an active listener Let the speaker know what you are in­ terested in what he is saying by remaining alert and keep eye contact. Facial expressions often let the speaker know whether he has his audience "tuned in" or "turned off." You may not al­ ways agree with what is being said, but try to understand why the speaker thinks as he does. Asking questions may help him explain some statements that seem unclear to you SPACE SHUTTOrr President Ford looks at a model of the space shuttle in his office.
