I read and think a lot about personal and business growth. It seems that virtually every problem that has to do with you and someone else can all be fixed with open, clear communication.

There was an article in the Beacon on Valentines Day that was from divorce court. The judge said that all divorces could be tied back to either money or a failure to communicate.

Are you a people pleaser who lets people walk all over them? Be decisive, set clear expectations, learn assertive communication.

Are you losing your war? It’s probably because you aren’t connected with your ground troops.

Is your business failing? It’s probably because you aren’t talking to your employees, your clients, or your prospects.

Is there some relationship in your life that is not what you want it to be? I’m willing to bet that it probably could be better with open, clear communication.
