One the principles that I seek to apply is 'listening'. Actually the principle would be 'sound judgement' and 'listening' could be an act required for that but I tend to treat 'listening' as a principle itself.

My reason for this is fairly simple. There is too much noise in this world and things that should be heard get lost in that noise. This in turn leads to do dissatisfaction in human beings. People need to be heard to know that they matter and I seek to be the listener.

There are other reasons as. Listening is an extremely good way to learn. It is the act of beginning of learning. The child speaks it's first words based on what it hears. Similarly one can learn all sorts of things just by opening one's ear.
