Magical Thinking - Listening pays off ....

Listening pays off

Listening provides the clues

Don't be a conversation hog. Listen, win friends, and learn.

Thinking right toward people, removes frustrations and stress.

When you boil it all down, the big cause of stress is negative feelings toward other people.

So think positive toward people and discover how wonderful, really wonderful this world is.

The real test for thinking right toward people comes when things don't go exactly the way we want.

1.       How do you think when you're passed up for a promotion? Or

2.       When you fail to win an office in a club you belong to? Or

3.       When you're criticized for the job you've done?

Remember this: 

How you think when you lose, determines how long it will be until you win.

Just do two things:

1. Ask yourself, "What can I do to make myself more deserving of the next opportunity?"

2. Don't waste time and energy being discouraged. Don't berate/criticize yourself. Plan to win next time.
