    How Email-Communication Matters?: Writing lucid emails, a trait of successful personality.

    Some people write obscure emails. They write emails in the least possible time by using all the possible short forms. Many people write emails carelessly, with almost the whole stuff dumped in a single and bizarre paragraph. The way email is composed, represents your personality to an email receiver. The words, style, and tone that are used in any email make your immediate reflection on the other side. Perhaps, nears and dears, like parents, may not have much concern while reading your improvised email. But to the others, especially, unknown and professionals, such emails stir irritation. It also defeats the purpose of sending an email. Thus, incomprehensible email not only spoils the precious time but may also upset the mood of a person reading that email.

    Masters in Our Midst: Recognize and celebrate them

    As commuters hustled through the Washington, D.C. metro station on a cold winter morning, a musician stood next to a wall playing his violin, the case at his feet open for tips. He played six Bach pieces for 43 minutes. A few people stopped and listened for a moment, then hurried on their way. Some threw some change or a dollar into the violin case. The musician’s most attentive audience was a three-year-old boy holding his mother's hand. He wanted to stay and listen, but his mother tugged him along. Finally the violinist retrieved $32 from the case, put his instrument away, and disappeared into the crowd. No one applauded or thanked him.

    Shoot For the Moon: And you’ll never end up with a handful of mud

    Over the years, I've asked office brokers and managers about strategies they've used to help agents, especially newer agents, to become successful faster and establish momentum. An answer I got from some very successful office leaders was this advice to a new licensee when asked, "What do I do now?" Answer: "Go out and buy or lease a Cadillac Eldorado or Continental Mark III" (in the 70's) and Mercedes and BMWs (from the 80's on). After the dazed newbie agent had taken a deep breath, they usually responded with their reality, "I can hardly afford Board dues and business cards, how am I supposed to buy an expensive luxury car?" The manager's response, in essence, used the comparison about people being like tea bags. That being, "You don't know how strong you are until you're in a little bit of hot water."

    The New Frontier of Financial Wellness: What it means to be financially fit.

    Fear of Failure: Overcome the self-limiting fear

    What is failure? To many it is a loss, a show of weakness, and a rejection of our persona so the world perceives an underachiever, or perhaps even a flop. Failure in this context can amplify personal insecurities that can be humiliating in our respective social circles. Not succeeding in something opens the door for criticism, mockery and even “I told you so” remarks. Failure is an emotional fear that strikes at our very core.
