There are so many aspects of communicating. When I was a young boy, I would climb trees and listen to the sounds. I would listen to the birds to figure out what kind they were. I listen to the wind or a storm as it approached. You know what I never like to listen to and still don’t are TV commercials. When they come on they raise the volume and play off-key music. It is so you will remember it. Usually what I do is take the remote and mute the sound until the show comes back on. Talking about commercials, I took a business course in college on how to write advertising letters. It was interesting. I really didn’t use the information other than learning to write. On the line of listening, take care of your ears and your hearing. It is most important in your life. I worked for a big box store and loss some of my hearing from all the noises in the store. You can survive in this world without hearing but it is hard. After college I worked in both radio and television. But I found that I liked radio better than television. It was easier to communicate in radio. It seems that our whole world evolves communicating in one form or the other. Whether it is print media, radio, talking on the phone, speaking to people, blogging or just listening to whatever. Communications are a major part of our lives and we need to be able to do it coherently. So use your time wisely and learn to communicate specifically. Then you will be productive in all your endeavors.
