This is the lastest quality newsletter from my friend and communication expert John Mulvey, enjoy

“Communication is the main thing that we have over the rest of the animal kingdom; the spoken word that is, and yet many of us could improve don’t you think?

I thought that sharing a few tips on listening might be useful.

Using your ears twice as much as your mouth will raise your awareness and enable you to become a much better conversationalist.

I once again have the pleasure of inviting John Mulvey to share some thoughts, this time on just that, managing time; Enjoy

You need a plan to find success.

Wanting success isn’t sufficient enough to get it. You’ve got to ask yourself, “What are you going to do to get the things you want.”

Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.

You cannot fail with a definite step by step plan, because each step you take will carry you along to the next step, like a track. All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.

You can not get lost on a straight road.

To Your Success and Freedom;
Peter Grimes

The truly successful person doesn’t use others, other people use them.

If you can contribute to others, no matter how small your talent, you too can become successful. The measure of anyone is the number of people that they serve.

Service to others is the essence of success. No one achieves success without being of service.

All great men and women became successful because they gave some talent or ability in the service of others.

Everybody has to be somebody to somebody to be anybody.
