Learning to be a good listener is an important skill to have, and can make a significant difference in how accepted or respected you can become among the people you interact with. Its also just a good thing to do to become a more civlized person in general. People always think that what they have to say is important, and if you listen to them appropriately they will love you for it. to an extent.
