It is all in
the alphabet. Both these words silent and listen have the same letters in
English language, of course, arranged differently: S I L E N T. When you are
silent you listen well and understand well. Here is my take on the subject of
silent and listen analysed by each letter.
S: This letter stands for Synchronization.
When you are silent you tend to sync your body, mind and spirit in optimum
manner. In the body side your ears are listening and your mouth speaks a point
or two where necessary. On the mind side you are attentive and free of
distorting thoughts. In cosmic analysis, bringing your spirit early on helps synchronizing.
I: Standing for Inner voice, this letter gives
you the ability to get signals from your inner mind. As the process of listening goes on you get intimation,
guides, hints, prompts and clues from your inner mind so that you can clarify a
point here and clear a doubt there. This type of mind prodding is the ultimate
skill most successful corporate leaders possess.
L: Of course, this letter stands for
listening. But not the mundane, pedestrian and verbal flow of words and
statements uttered by the talker. Here it is about listening to what is unsaid.
Similar to your listening to your inner voice, you develop the skill of
listening to matters un-said by the talker. In sum, you are reading his mind
and thoughts running in him which he is not spewing out but keeps close to his
chest. Most people talk and they say they are frank about it. The point is,
that they keep many things in their sleeves. When you are silent, you can hear
what thoughts are simmering in their mind.
E: Enumeration is what is meant by this
letter. Most people do not talk in logical or sequential manner. They are not
going to list item in any intelligible order. They meander, digress, and say
many things imprecisely. It is your duty to enumerate the points they are talking
about in logical sequence so that you get the hang of what they are really talking
about.
N: Node is implied by this letter. You
know node is an intersection between two or more branches. As a silent person
you will be able to draw the nodes and connect the facts you have enumerated
already and get an idea as to what the talker intends to convey.
T: Theme is scripted by this last letter.
After making the nodes, you can detect the theme which forms centrality of the
subject, argument or proposition the talker has in mind, but never expressed in
clear and precise way.
Here is an
assignment for you. Donald Trump says the mantra “America First” wherever goes.
Be silent and listen to his lecture. Follow the SILENT frame of analysis
explained above. Can you tell me what he really means by this catch phrase?
