Day 6: Practice Makes Perfect

Well, yesterday we evaluated where we are at with our listening skills. Today we are going to move right along into PRACTICING our listening skills. Why not practice those skills NOW when there is no conflict (I'm assuming) rather than in the heat of a moment.

Today's Challenge

Ask your dear husband about something that only he would know (between the two of you). Here are some ideas:

* What did you think of (insert favorite team name here) offense/defense in the last game?
* Do you have a preference between the old school Mustang or the new 21st Century version?
* What is the benefit of changing your oil every 3 months?
* What route do you think is the fastest to get from point A to point B?

At any rate, you are asking him a question that peaks his interest. Practice all those skills we talked about yesterday: eye contact, focus, looking for feelings and facts, not letting your mind wander, tune in, and ask questions. Remember, practice makes perfect, ladies!
