The Leadership Skill No One Talks About (But It Changes Everything)

The Leadership Skill No One Talks About (But It Changes Everything)

The strongest leaders don’t force their way forward—they listen.

We often think leadership is about making quick decisions, being assertive, and pushing through obstacles. But one of the most powerful leadership skills is deep listening.

April’s numerology (16/7 transformed by 2) teaches us that insight and connection lead to mastery. The more deeply you listen—to yourself and others—the stronger your leadership becomes.

How to Develop the Skill of Deep Listening

✔ Pause Before Responding: Next time you want to react, take a deep breath first. True wisdom comes in the silence between words.
✔ Listen to Your Own Inner Guidance: If something doesn’t feel right, honor that instinct. Your body and emotions are messengers.
✔ Practice a Listening Meditation: Yogi Bhajan taught a practice called Shuniya (Zero Point Awareness)—where you sit and allow complete silence.
