YOUR FORMAL EDUCATION MAY BE HOLDING YOU BACK
From trying other jobs
From trying other careers
From not using your degree
From accepting less income
From accepting less status
From moving geographically
From taking a sabbatical or extended leave
From seeing yourself differently

RHETORIC
Rhetoric is the art and practice of constructing and delivering persuasive oral arguments.
Rhetoric was founded in ancient Greece, 2600 years ago.
Rhetoric uses logic and emotion to help deliver cogent, persuasive arguments.
Rhetoric does NOT automatically make the orator correct or give the orator superior knowledge.
Rhetoric is a way to organize and help deliver thoughts, information and knowledge as part of a viewpoint.
Rhetoric can be learned, practiced and refined.
Rhetoric may not convince or persuade, but it should not drive people away.
Rhetoric should stimulate people to think.

EFFICIENCY
Is sometimes the enemy of effectiveness
May be moral and ethical in the stewardship of resources
Is an endlessly beating drum
May be fleetingly satisfying
May dehumanize and demoralize

FEELINGS
Many situations feel right, and good, and just, and even have a sense of urgency and immediacy.
Check yourself before accepting these feelings as objective truths.

BETTER QUESTIONS
Reading broadly, speaking to people from different backgrounds, formal education, and good debate often do help provide answers, but more importantly, they stimulate us to form better questions and to think more deeply and clearly.

TIMING, TEMPO, TEMPERAMENT
Your rhythms in life.
Encompass everything from the faith that speaks to you, to friendships, to how you write, to when you fall in love, to where you vacation, to investing.

RIGHT ACTIONS
DO NOT GUARANTEE us desired results.
Right actions, performed repeatedly, INCREASE THE CHANCES OF desired results.
