"Don't waste your life in doubts and fears: spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour's duties will be the best preparation for the hours or ages that follow it." Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882, Poet and Essayist

The Art of Influence
Okay if you want to grow in life you must read and put what you read into action. This week was all about the parable. I read 3 different ones, and all were outstanding in their own right. Today were going to talk about "The Art of Influence, Persuading Others Begins With You." I love this story about a graduating college student who gets to spend a few days with a billionaire. His grandmother was the billionaires nanny when he was a teenager. He is so excited that he gets to learn lessons about life from a billionaire. This is a great book that just needs to read. It's an very easy read and you will loved it. This book is hard for me to review only because it is so good. I will give you one excerpt from the book that hit home with me. "For now, know this. If you want to attract people of vision you have to be a person on vision. If you want to attract people who are passionate, you have to be passionate. If you want to attract people who are fair and honest and positive, you need to be fair, honest and positive." So you can see with messages like that this book should be added to your library if you are serious about growing. Enjoy this one, Way to go again-Chris Widener.
