“If people are not listening to you stop talking to them and that’s really that is the best piece of advice that I can give you.”
Jordan believes that continuing to talk to people who aren’t listening or paying attention essentially devalues the information you are trying to convey. This is because you are trying to pass on valuable information to an audience that is rejecting it.
“The ones who aren’t listening pull back because you’re devaluing what you have to say.”
Talking to people who are not interested in your message can also harm your confidence. This is because people who are unwilling to receive the message will label it as a lie or unimportant.
