Don’t waste your time with explanations, people only hear what they want to hear. Paulo Coelho

Don’t waste your time with explanations, people only hear what they want to hear. Paulo Coelho

You know how sometimes you try explaining something, but it feels like you're talking to a wall? That's what Paulo Coelho is getting at. People often only hear what they want to hear. It's like when you're telling a friend why you can't hang out, but all they pick up on is the part where you mentioned a new TV show you're watching. They aren't really listening to your reason; they're just hearing what interests them. I remember once trying to explain why I was quitting a job. I talked about wanting new challenges and spending more time with family. But some folks only heard "quit" and thought I wasn't serious about my career. Frustrating, right? Here's a quick tip: keep your explanations simple and focus on the key point. If they still don't get it, that's on them, not you. Save your breath for those who really want to understand.
