What is your nature? Do you yourself talk a lot or you love to listen others saying? I speaks less myself. By nature i want to listen to what others are telling much. Just curious to know your habit.

It's necessary for a person to have ability to listen as well as speak and he/she should know whether the time is right or wrong for him to speak or listen. Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry. I'll keep this in mind in our meeting today. You couldn't have posted this on a better day for me to respond as now I will remmember this through out the meeting and will follow it.

It seems like you are good listener. That's really a good thing to follow. However, I truly believe in communication. Communication is not complete without enough talking and listening too. So, it must require the balance amount of both. I do pay more attention when other people speaks but at the same time I do speak a lot when I feel like its my time to speak. Its not just enough that you listen to others, you should speak out your feelings to other. Take care.

I have both the qualities.I talk a lot specially with family members and my friends.I too listen to someone who talks and more patiently listen when someone share their sorrows with me.I feel listening to soemone is the best than talking because in this fast world everyone are so busy and they dont have time to talk much.But sharing happiness and sorrows with our loved ones can induce happiness within us.so its good to listen more and talk politely with others.Its my opinion

I prefer to hear more than speak. I am more of a listener as I find it more interesting to listen to stories from other people. I am not comfortable with speaking as I get butterflies in my stomach especially when speaking in a group. I do not talk because I also fear offending people as I don't think before I speak. However, I am trying to obtain a diploma in crapping though.

I am a silent type of person, so I guess, I prefer to listen than to speak more. I think we're the same here, I love to listen to other people side. And what I hate most is to answer alot of questions from a certain person. This what makes me feel easily irritated.
