What Are Celeste Headlee's Ten Recommendations?

Respond/reflect on the ten recommendations that the presenter makes.
Celeste Headlee made many good points about how today society do not communicate with each other as often as we should without any conflict. And when we do we are distracted by our phone so we are more comfortable with texting people then having a face to face conversation. The ten recommendations that Celeste Headlee makes on how to have a Good Conversation I believe to be very useful. The first recommendation was don’t multitask because it distracts you from being engaged in the conversation. Multitasking can be great when you are working, however, when you are having a conversation that’s a different story because it can make the person feel as if you are not engaged
The six recommendations were if you are having a conversation with someone don’t equate your thought with theirs because it is not the same and all experiences are individual. So, if you do that you are making the conversation all about you and conversation is not a promotion opportunity. I personally lose interest if I’m trying to have a meaningful conversation with someone and all they made it about themselves. The seven recommendations were tried not to repeat yourself because it can be condescending. The eighth recommendation was to stay out of the “weeds” meaning stay away from mentioning dates because people don’t care. The ninth recommendations were to "listen" because” the average person talks about two hundred words per minute but we can listen up to five hundred words per minute”. I believe listening is an important key to having a good conversation because if you are not listing you wouldn’t be able to respond effectively and understanding the individual in which you are communicating with. The tenth recommendation was “be brief” because “a good conversation is like a miniskirt; short enough to keep you interested but long enough to cover the subject”. I like the analogy of the skirt that Celeste Headlee
