From the angle you’re coming from, it seems as though you’re advocating…

Jonathan,
If it’s any consolation, I couldn’t even find your name when I was trying to connect with LinkedIn. There are 292 other people with your name. I have tried twice to get into LinkedIn, and failed.

Great post Lauren Holliday! How to win friends and influence people is one of my favorite books. Such an insightful read… Carnage’s points seem like common sense but we as humans can be so selfish that we fail to recognize the power of empathy and understanding.

I’ve never been particularly a fan of Wal-Mart. There are a lot of problems I have with it, which I could honestly write a book about, but I want to focus on one specific problem I have with it: how it effectively “traps” lower socioeconomic status individuals as well as individuals from small…

Today’s self-empowering communication to positively affect yourself:
Repeat with me: I AM SUCCESS EVERY MOMENT!
I don’t publish every day — it makes me terrible!
I don’t have the time for it. More importantly, I want to read what others are writing such as this story and engage with them to learn more. After all you should spend 80–90% of your time engaging with others and the rest of the time on your own content.
