BUILDING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS AND SOCIAL SKILL #6.1
<p>● <strong>LISTEN MORE </strong><strong>THAN YOU SPEAK </strong></p><p><br/></p><p>Listening more than you speak is one of the strongest social skills you can develop. It’s not just <strong>good manners</strong>, it’s a form of wisdom. When you listen, you don’t only hear words; you gain knowledge, perspective, and understanding about people and life.</p><p><br/></p><p>There’s a saying that “<strong>experience is the best teacher</strong>.” Many believe you only learn when something happens to you, but I believe you can also learn from the experiences and even the mistakes of others. That’s the power of listening, it saves you from unnecessary surprises and prepares you for challenges ahead.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>For me</strong>, listening has been a personal growth tool. Being the youngest among my peers most times, I naturally leaned toward listening to their stories and experiences. This has helped me build stronger friendships, <strong>gather wisdom</strong>, and learn how to interpret words and emotions more deeply.</p><p><br/></p><p>And <strong>here’s the truth:</strong> everyone wants to feel understood. When you listen, people feel valued. They feel that what they are saying matters. That is how <strong>trust</strong> is built, and that is how <strong>strong relationships are formed.</strong></p><p style="text-align: center; "> <strong>MAJO♡! <a class="tc-blue external-link external-link" href="https://twocents.space/insights/tag/6" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#6</a>.1</strong></p>
BUILDING STRONG RELATIONSHIPS AND SOCIAL SKILL ...
At the end of the month, we give out prizes in 3 categories: Best Content, Top Engagers and
Most Engaged Content.
Best Content
Top Engagers
Most Engaged Content
Best Content
We give out cash prizes to between 7 and 20 community members with the best insights in the past month.
The winners are picked by an in-house selection process.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know for the Best Content track
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
Top Engagers
For the Top Engagers Track, we award the top 3 people who engage the most with other user's content via
comments.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Engagers" tab on the rankings page.
Most Engaged Content
The Most Engaged Content recognizes users whose content received the most engagement during the month.
We pick the top 3.
The winners are picked using the "Top Monthly Contributors" tab on the rankings page.
Contributor Rankings
The Rankings/Leaderboard shows the Top 20 contributors and engagers on TwoCents a monthly and all-time basis
— as well as the most active colleges (users attending/that attended those colleges)
The all-time contributors ranking is based on the Contributor Score, which is a measure of all the engagement and exposure a contributor's content receives.
The monthly contributors ranking tracks performance of a user's insights for the current month. The monthly and all-time scores are calcuated DIFFERENTLY.
This page also shows the top engagers on an all-time & monthly basis.
Below is a list of badges on TwoCents and their designations.
