• A comment on Conversation: If you could teach the world 1 valuable thing you learned, what would it be and why?

  Aug 3 2011: I do everything at 110% the best I could do and be at all times or else I do not bother at all. Be the best person I could be whether it is my job, parenting, helping some one else, **Listening**. I learned that from Walter Payton #34 Chicago Bears in his book Never Die Easy.
  
  I picked up from myself and experiences that actually Listening and remembering to what a person has to say instead of bombarding thing with a fight back could actually get you a long way and save a lot of arguing. Plus its a HUGE brownie points with the woman ;)
