The habits that popped up in my listening are as follows
Distractions such as background sounds or my cellphone or my thoughts going on in my mind sidetracked me in my listening. I jump to conclusions before the speaker has finished talking.
What can you do to replace these habits with more productive behaviors?
The first thing I can do is to minimize the distractions around myself. I should concentrate on the speaker. Focus myself to keep my mind on what the speaker is saying and avoid multitasking. I should keep my cellphone on silent mode when I am engaged in a conversation. I should maintain an eye contact with the speaker and nod my head to support listening. I should avoid daydreaming.
