Hi, my name is Elizabeth. I'm from the United States, and my question is, what is something you need to work on?

Something that I personally need to work on is not interrupting when other people are speaking. So, I have noticed many times when I am in a conversation with a family member or a friend, they'll be speaking, sharing a story, for example, and I will jump in with what I want to say and interrupt them, which is very rude. Something that I'm trying to work on is actively listening to what the other person is saying, waiting until they finished their thought or their story, and then saying what it is that I wanted to say.

This is difficult for me because I have many thoughts running through my head. I'm worried that I'll forget what it is that I was going to say, but again, interrupting is very rude. It's impolite to the other person. So, I'm working on, again, actively listening and not interrupting the other person.
