Never ask a dumb person
a hard question
He/she won’t know the answer and will resent you.
Know your audience (the person you are talking with)
before asking a question.
Questions drive the conversation, and they get a
reaction in the other person.

Always Have a Plan B
There is a fellow named Murphy out there who will
ensure your Plan A will foul up.
O‘Riley's Law – Murphy was an optimist.
When preparing a Plan A, always consider the
worst scenario and come up with a
workable Plan B.
It will make you think!

Solution Book’s
First Page is a Mirror
We can change what we know, the way we act,
and our attitude; however, we are unable to
control or change the other person.
Since most problems are people problems, we
need to start with the person that we can
control - Self.

Use Lombardi Time
Always arrive early.
When you arrive early you can review the
agenda, think, find the best seat, and build
relationships with the other early arrivals.
If you are late you feel embarrassed, sit only in
the empty seats, and wonder what you missed.
