Easy Listening

Easy listening exists only on the radio.

David Barkan

I came across this quote online, but I am not able to decide with certainty which person named David Barkan made this statement. However, it reminds me of a quote I have seen that is attributed to Calvin Coolidge: “No one ever listened themselves out of a job.” Similarly, if you are not listening then you are not learning, especially since it is likely to be true that what you are hearing is going in one ear and out the other. We need to do more than simply attend a meeting, a lecture, and so forth, otherwise, we are just wasting our time, and we should look at how that time can be better spent.
