I enjoyed watching this video because it was not only informative, but it was entertaining. Celeste Headlee gave ten points on how to have a better conversation and how people do the opposite of the points she gave whether we want to admit it or not. Two points that stuck out to me was do not multitask and be brief. I have a horrible habit of letting my mind run wild all the time, even when I am sleeping. My mom could be telling me about her promotion she got at work and I will be thinking about what I want to eat for dinner later. And doing that, it leaves me daydreaming and it will show all over my face that I am doing so, and so then the person I am talking to thinks I am not listening. I am listening, just not all the way. And with my mind running wild, I tend to make a conversation that could have really ended in five minutes and make it last for 15 because I would start getting off track. Watching this video is making me take in consideration what I am doing in a conversation, so I can have a productive one.
