"You can have the perfect message, but it may fall on deaf ears when the listener is not prepared or open to listening.These listening "planes" were first introduced by the American composer Aaron Copland (1900-1990) as they pertain to music . . . 1. The Sensual Plane: You're aware of the music, but not engaged enough to have an opinion or judge it.2. The Expressive Plane: You become more engaged by paying attention, finding meaning beyond the music, and noticing how it makes you feel.3. The Musical Plane: You listen to the music with complete presence, noticing the musical elements of melody, harmony, pitch, tempo, rhythm, and form."

"To Become an Attentive Listener . . . Observe a person's physical presence to see how their body language aligns with their message. Recognize what is being said on the surface. Engage your intuition to hear the meaning, purpose, and motivation behind their message. Be aware of your own internal responses and how you are feeling. Put yourself in their shoes to better understand their perspective."

"I don't think Alfonso was a big expert on Potter either. He was feeling his way through it more than I was."

"Yeah, well that's the best thing about it, I think, is knowing kids and kids getting mental when they know you're in it. Any kid you meet and anyone I know tells the kid you're in it and they get short of breath."
Kids
