No One Listens To You ? Here Are Reasons Why. by purples25(f): 10:03am On Oct 24, 2019
If you have a problem with being listened to whenever you're having a conversation with others, this article is for you. Listed below are reasons why people might just tune out or not take you seriously whenever you talk.

1. YOU ALWAYS INTERRUPT : If you are talking to others and you do not give room for them to succesfully air their views, you butt in while some one is yet to finish a sentence - chances are that the person/people you are always interrupting will feel angry and less inclined to listen to you. Everyone will just keep quiet and ignore you while you say whatever you like, since you are so rude.

2. YOU REPEAT YOURSELF REDUNDANTLY : When expressing yourself, try to monitor what you are saying, so that you can notice quickly if you keep repeating those stories/ideas again and again. Chances are that people will quickly get bored if you continue to say the same thing.

3. NO POSITIVE INPUT: Once others notice you ALWAYS have a negative vibe, they'll move away from you. Try a little positivity.

4. YOU CONSTANTLY TALK AND THINK OF YOURSELF ALONE : So, you're talking and everything you are saying is about you. Even the ideas behind whatever you say suggest that you are not considerate of others. If you are guilty of this, you need to think more about others before you speak. No one wants to hear all about you for what seems like an eternity.

5. YOU FREQUENTLY BELITTLE THE OPINIONS OF OTHERS : Some one says something and you immediately judge it to be wrong or dumb. This is a problem if it has become a habit. Once people know that if they talk, you will only discredit them automatically, they will prefer to say nothing. Also, they wont listen to you too.

6. LACK OF ENTHUSIASM : One cannot expect to be taken seriously when his/ her ideas are explained to others with little or no conviction and confidence. Most people will feel you do not know what you are saying or you are just not excited about it. If you aren't okay with what you are bringing forward, that mood will also affect listeners.

8. YOU ALWAYS PLAY THE VICTIM OR NAG : Something is always happening to you. Someone did something to you. Going on with this routine can become a vicious cycle. Like the boy who always cried ' WOLF! ' and always got ignored, you may end not being taken seriously or believed. We always need to watch out for just how frequently we complain about certain things, else our audience gets fed up and we lose.

As Ghandi once said , ' Does it improve on the silence? ' . Talking to others should , and can be done with skill and tact.
