Listeners are successful

Last year one of our pastors was guiding me on some career goals.  He gently pointed out that an area I could improve on is listening.  He said my brain is always thinking ahead.  I took his advice and read two books on listening skills. When I re-did my Rule of 5 I included Listening as one of my five.  The Bible points that in Proverbs 21:28 that good listeners are successful.  That is my desire today.
