Putting the Spotlight on Others

As an introvert, one of the best things you can give is your attention.

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ mentioned that just meeting someone with a cheerful face is a good deed [Sunan al-Tirmidhi 1970]

Channel your curiosity and you can let others do the talking.

To gain more insight, here’s a phrase you could ask:

“What matters to you most regarding ______?”

For example, you’re talking to your colleague and they brought up their home renovation project.

You wonder what’s the most important thing on their mind about the renovation, so you ask:

““What matters to you most regarding the renovation?”

The answer could range from staying within budget to making sure it resembles the picture in the catalog.

Give the phrase a try and put the spotlight on others. 🔦
