How should I listen to my boss and colleagues?

Deepen your listening skills. Close your mouth, quiet your mind and body, and truly listen to what your boss or colleague is saying. Listen not with a racing mind, but with a quiet heart.

See if, just for a moment, you can experience what it is like to be in his or her shoes.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
