With this course you will practice the essential skills necessary to give quality attention to people and situations in your life. At the end of each sections, you will have the opportunity to reflect on your experience, learn from it and keep practicing in your real life what you learned. A short assignment (3 in total, about 5-8 minutes each) will also ask you to send to your instructor few words to describe your experience in taking the suggested tips and actions. The training program will provide you an important opportunity to practice managing your focus and your attention and becoming more and more aware about what is easy and what is difficult for you. You will notice how hard can be to listen to a person and/or to a situation, especially when you don't agree, you feel bored or you are eager to express your opinion. You will also realize how practice is key! The more you redirect, moment by moment, your attention, the more you will be in control of your thoughts and your ability to listen to what you choose to. We know from neuroscience that attention changes the brain, it creates new connections and helps to build new habits. Fully listening to what the others are saying is one of the most valuable gift you can offer, and it certainly also increase your charisma and your leadership abilities.
