Stay focused when you're listening. If you see a squirrel outside, ignore it and stay focused on your spouse so you can hear what they're saying. Being able to have good listening skills is important part of communication. I once had a sales manager who said "you have two ears and one mouth so you can listen twice as much as you talk." I believe that to be true. Make sure that you stop and listen and avoid distractions like squirrels, because listening and having good communication skills is the right thing to do and it models the way for others.
