Welcome

Welcome to the ListeningPro website. 

There comes times in our lives when we need someone to listen.  We need for someone to sit across from us and look us in the eyes and listen.  

We do not need advice, we do not need consolation.  We just need someone to listen and understand what we are going through.  

Here are some interesting tidbits about listening:

"Some people are chattier than others but on average, the typical person utters anywhere from 125 to 175 words per minute.

Your ears work a little faster than your mouth. The average number of words you're able to listen to per minute is around 450.


Even though your ears are capable of picking up on so many words, your brain doesn't necessarily process all of them. Most people usually only remember about 17 to 25% of the things they listen to.


You might be surprised to learn that your words only convey about 7% of what you're trying to say. The other 93% is communicated through facial expressions and the tone of your voice.


There are actually four distinct listening styles that you can employ, and about 40% of people are using two or more at any given time."


I got these stats from this website:  https://www.creditdonkey.com/listening-statistics.html
