Your New Perspectives From This Recent Quarter

In the second quarter of this year, what new perspective or perspectives did you gain? On my end, one big takeaway was the value of conscious listening. It's not necessarily the statement or even how the statement is said, but also what's underneath the statement. What about you? (On a related note to this topic, this is why books can be massive time-savers. If it takes you a day to read a book, but that book introduces to you a perspective that saves you a year of your life, you've won big. It's not about new information, but reflecting over your perspectives on life - plus the added bonus of practicing focus!)
