Snails do not have ears, but they detect sound through vibration. In a similar way, we humans can sense with our whole bodies. Think of when someone who is charismatic or furious (or both) enters the room. Once we are aware of all the “listening” tools at our disposal—such as energy, intuition, empathy, and body language—we can hear a wider range of sounds. We can go from hearing a single note to hearing an entire symphony. It’s no coincidence that “listen” contains the same letters as “silent.” Strive to listen more than you talk.
