    Cultivating the capability to listen is underrated for an optimal human life. If you have the skill to listen, hold on to it and don't let anyone talk you into speaking more than you feel the need for. Until we listen, we cannot effectively learn, collaborate, problem solve, close blind spots and optimise the capability of our shared humanity - in intellect and heart. Unfortunately, the narrative sold to us and also the one that sells is more often than not, one of noise and of projecting an unreal persona that caters to the noise. Here's hoping that we validate more of the values that truly serve us; values that we want to see and experience around ourselves, rather than the ones that merely look good.
