During a conversation with someone, you realize that you are more preoccupied with thinking about your response than what the other person is saying. How do you approach this?

  • I will consciously try to stop and focus on his words.
  • I will let the conversation flow, but I will try to look focused.
  • I will wait for a moment of silence and then I will ask for the last point to be repeated.
  • I will start asking questions to better tune into the conversation.
  • I continue with my inner monologue, but I try to respond appropriately.
