You raise your voice
Take a step back and think about your last few conversations; if you remember doing the majority of the talking, you likely acted insensitively. ‘Insensitive people resort to standard techniques to get other people to hear them, which is only more of the same and frustrating because it doesn’t work,’ says Gurr.
Try to pay closer attention to your own behavior during a conversation; any time realize you’ve raised your voice or interrupted others to get your point across, stop yourself and make a mental note to avoid it next time it’s your turn to speak.
