You can pay attention by look at their eyes when they talk.

We are always communicating. It is impossible not to communicate. We communicate even when we saying nothing.

Our behavior is saying something. Non-verbal behavior such as facial expressions, posture, and gestures provide clues to the feelings that we are experiencing at that moment.

E.g.PostureLean forward a little towards the speaker not too close MovementNod your head to show you are listening. Eye contactUse it but don't overdo it EnvironmentKeep distractions to a minimum EncourageMake remarks now and then to encourage the person FocusFocus on the person speaking to you

Nonverbal communication is made up of the following parts:

  1. Visual
  2. Tactile
  3. Vocal

Use of time, space, and image

Body language includes facial expression, eye movement, posture, and gestures

The face is the biggest part of this. All of us "read" people's faces for ways to interpret what they say and feel.

This fact becomes very variable to us when we are dealing with someone with dark sunglasses.

Of course we can easily misread the person face especially when communicating across information where gestures can mean something very different in another culture.

Perhaps by actually listening to the person who is talking.......

To show you are focused on what others are saying, maintain eye contact, nod your head to show understanding, avoid multitasking or distractions, and ask relevant questions or provide feedback to demonstrate active listening.

look at them when they are talking to you is usally a good place to start.. I would try to actually listen to them so you can convers with them about what they are talking about!

Eye contact, nod your head, laugh at appropriate times, and if you actually do listen, you don't have to try to pretend that you're listening: the signs will be there. :-)
