Welcome to Stuff I Learned Yesterday. My name is Aaron Peterson, as a child I was stung over 100 times so now I know what to do when I hear that buzzing sound, and I believe that if you aren’t learning, you aren’t living. In today’s episode of Stuff I Learned Yesterday I talk several situations recently that have led me to the lesson that listening is more than hearing.

Today’s Fun Fact: Images go into your long-term memory where as words live in your short-term memory. Words are processed by our short-term memory where we can retain about 7 bits of information at a time. This is why we have 7 digit phone numbers.

Friday Forum
I want you to be a part of the Friday Forum! Friday Forum is your opportunity to Share what you’ve learned, so that other listeners and I can learn from you. It can be a message as short as 30 seconds or several minutes long. It really doesn’t matter just as long as it’s something that will benefit others.
