Lately, it’s been very clear to me that what I hear is not what the person I spoke to meant to say. 

It has become almost a research project and a small obsession for me: to see what happens when there are more than 2 people in a conversation and how we all hear different things.

It can be a real problem though. It can bring so much confusion, hurt and misunderstanding. 

I am considering starting any response with: “Here is what I heard you say.”

We all project. Can I notice it before responding?
