  • Reasons for Listening

    There is a crisis of listening in the world. A lot of people want to talk, but very few want to listen, and people are really suffering from this lack of empathy. Empathy is important for any listener. It’s almost impossible to develop sensitivity and respect for another person’s vulnerability without knowing what it’s like to be vulnerable yourself. Whether someone is confessing a misdeed, proposing an idea, revealing anxiety, sharing a dream, or recalling a significant event, know that that person is giving a piece of him or herself. And you need to handle it with care; otherwise, the person will start to edit future conversations with you, knowing they can’t be real with you.

    Describe a risk you took that you do not regret.

    Let’s go with:

    • Volunteering for my local church.
    • Joining the local YR club.
    • Moving out of my dad’s place.

    Those three have had a significant impact in my life. I do not regret those decisions and I actually thank God for leading me in that direction. I’ll expound on each one in a later post.

    How do you unwind after a demanding day?

    Sometimes I eat. I tend to grab on whatever I have in my cupboard and munch. Normally I’ll have a container of trail mix there. I get a couple of handfuls, sit in front of my laptop and play a couple of highlight reels of a few of my favorite players.

    How do you use social media?

    I just use social media for fun. It’s not directed for any hard core promotion of any materials. I don’t use it for impressions or likes; I use it just to express myself. Maybe I should use it for promos.

    While we are this topic let me remind you that I do have some sponsorships that you should be aware. All the information is on this page. If you manage to look and make a purchase, it would be greatly appreciated.

    Describe a decision you made in the past that helped you learn or grow.

    A major decision that’s helped me with my personal growth is having a morning routine. Being consistent has always been a struggle for me. I remember when I was young my dad would give me a datebook to help me plan my days in advance. But I could never keep up with it.

    Having a morning routine gives me a sense of discipline, consistency, and accomplishment for the day. This is true, especially when I workout. (When those endorphins hit, I feel like I’m on a new level.)

    My normal morning routine consists of:

    • Prayer/Meditation
    • Writing in a journal
    • Read for a couple of minutes.
    • Exercise
    • Listening to a sermon or a faith building podcast

    I don’t do each one perfectly. But if I can’t get it done in the morning, then I’ll make it a point to accomplish each item later in the day. if you don’t have one, try it out. It may work for you.

    Describe a positive thing a family member has done for you.

    Back when I was in college I started doing working for the university catering company as a part time gig. A couple of buddies and I got put on by one of our mutual friends. The hours were sometimes wacky and the perks were nice (e.g., free food, wine).

    However I needed to get a tuxedo to work the main events and I didn’t have the money to get one. Enter my aunt. She loaned me the money to buy a tux and it helped me a lot. I could work the gigs. I paid her back with my first paycheck that I got.

    There are other instances of family helping me out but this was the first one that came to mind.
