humility

[drunkkenartist]

Oh Lord it's hard to be humble when you're perfect in every way
I can't wait to look in the mirror 'cause I get better lookin' each day
To know me is to love me, I must be a hell of a man
Oh Lord it's hard to be humble, but I'm doin' the best that I can

Do you really listen, or do you wait to talk??

Pulp Fiction?

That's a social skill that I have trouble with. The first time my hubby dined next to the wife of his company's Chairman of the Board (one of the top 50 most wealthy people in the US, according to Fortune Magazine), she started the conversation by saying, "I want to know everything about you. Tell me about yourself." How cool is that! We dined with customers last night, and he reminded me of this. That line works every time, and he has learned from it which has contibuted to his success in business.

Zed's dead, Baby, Zed's dead....

One of my favorite dialogues in the movie (I edited the inappropriate language):

Jules: What did you do to the towel?
Vincent: I was dryin' my hands.
Jules: You're supposed to wash 'em first.
Vincent: You watched me wash 'em.
Jules: I watched you get 'em wet.
Vincent: I was washing 'em. But this stuff's hard to get off. Maybe if I had Lava or something, I coulda done a better job.
Jules: I used the same blankin' soap you did and when I got finished, the towel didn't look like no blankin' Maxi-Pad.

Sorry for the tangent. I'll shut up about this, or either respond in a more appropriate thread.

she started the conversation by saying, "I want to know everything about you. Tell me about yourself."

That's classic Dale Carnegie advice! Straight from his books on "how to win friends & influence people" and "how to stop worrying and start living"... highly recommended reads, if you've never read them before
