Thanks so much Marites! I would honestly hate it if everyone always agreed. The point of what I do is to get people to THINK. Thanks for your kind words.

Jennifer - you loaned your book out? Shame on you! Go get another one........FAST. Thanks for your kind words!!! All the best. L

Thanks Tara - I appreciate it. All the best to you.

I have not read Crucial Conversations Richard. Do you mean your mind wanders when you read? It happens. When it does to me, I find another book where my mind doesn't wander and go back to the other book at a different time. I usually have 3 or 4 going at the same time for just that reason. Different books for different moods, time of day, location, etc.

Now THAT is funny!

Listening is one important skill that I am working to improve. The most helpful suggestion was to work on eye contact.

I am in complete agreement with Dave. It doesn't matter where I'm at, I hear people say there is no work. I was even walking down Mill Ave on Saturday and saw at least 2 businesses that were hiring.

When I lost my job in Oct, I worked my but off to get a job and guess what? That work paid off. It was only a few days before I wa employed again.

I have only looked for a job twice in my life. Once just out of Tech School and once when we moved to Southern Cal. Out of work for only a couple of weeks at the most. I have always had another job to go to before leaving the one I had. I've never made a lot of money but paid for one house and now my second home is close to paid out. Give me a... See More shout Larry, it been 40 years since we talked hasn't it? Since High School for sure. Saw you on Hannity not to long ago. Glad to see you doing so great.

Think you answered your own question. Any good idea can quickly become a bad one if done to the extreme. If it doesn't work, which in your case, it doesn't, I would go a different route.

If it's of any help, I have learned to reward myself with things that are good for me, such as healthy snacks and long walks.

Amazing -- thanks for the great song for the day. If you have never seen Derek Trucks live you better change you ways -- it is incredible to watch.

Luckily for me, my library carries all four LW books. They are wajjid zain!

Djebel - you are short a couple of books! Time to expand your library. Thanks Mohammad.

Thanks Sandor - not being another Zig knock off is a real compliment when you work in an industry that is 95% Zig knock offs! Glad you like On Writing too!

I will try to watch, have not been feeling too well as I picked up a mild case of flu and a bad cold, but will try to watch, I like listening to you as you don,t sugercoat the truth but you say what you mean, and I really enjoy listening to what you have to say, i wish you had your own show again

You were great, as usual. I was also impressed with Richard Rubino's knowledge of estates and trust. Good episode!
