~Robert G. Ingersoll
of power…. Most people can bear adversity.
But if you wish to know what a man really is,
give him power. This is the supreme test.

Thursday Thought #WarrenBuffett
Invest in yourself. The one easy way
~Warren Buffett
to become worth 50 percent more than
you are now at least is to hone your
communication skills–both written and
verbal. If you can’t communicate, it’s like
winking at a girl in the dark–nothing
happens. You can have all the brainpower
in the world, but you have to be able to
transmit it. And the transmission is
communication.
