Do you talk less and listen more or vice versa?

For me listening is the best way to go.

I listen much ... I always maintain a low profile when i find that my knowledge is not sufficient in the center..So during that circumstance i prefer to listen to others and upgrade my knowledge.. The secondary case, when i find that i'm pretty ready for a speech i will surely talk more.. So it depends on the situation and the group of people whether i should talk more or i should listen more...

I need to learn to listen more. More often times than not, I talk more than I listen. This has often got me in trouble as I usually say what is on my mind with little consequence to what I am saying. This is just due to my personality and trying to get things out. I am learning and hope to listen more in the future.

I prefer listening always, to the extent people start complaining. Though they like my attention! Personally, my opinion is listening to others is the key feature of a successful person. Not that I'm one... but who knows? I'll keep listening.

I don't talk too much; I am a listener most of the time. I do less talk, for me not to commit mistakes, so as they say "LESS TALK,LESS MISTAKE"...In order one cannot commit mistake then avoid talking too much.:)

I can't weigh which of them I do most. I often talk but still listen when I have to. I guess there should be a balance between the two.

I do listening more than i do talking in my life. I think it's better to listen sometimes, although you may have something to say.

it all depends on the situation, at times we need to talk more and at times we need to listen more, but do always remember that gud listeners are good learners, so try to listen more than to speak

I find myself listening more. I like to know people can go to me to talk about their problems because they know I have a good ear. And I only give advice when asked for it. And I do not expect them to follow my advice, being heard enough is good for me.
