The Hidden Meaning in Their Summer Vacation
"The Hidden Meaning in Their Summer Vacation,"
by Susan Dunn, MA, The EQ Coach
Everyone's big on emotional intelligence now, because we've
learned the hard way that a person's people skills can make
or break them in the workplace. If the person is highly
exceptional in their field, it can be a close call, but all
things being equal, we prefer to work and socialize with
people who are pleasant and know how to get along.
The person with high EQ always tunes in to how the other
person thinks and feels, in order to smooth the road for
communication, instruction, sales, influence, leadership, or

That's all part of the "beauty and beast" nature that makes up
this simple, complicated game.
There are some fundamental tips, though, that can shave a few
years of frustration off your career! Some golfers disagree on
even the basics. So I guarantee you'll find somewhere someone

Five Magic Phrases: Tips For Negotiating Like A Pro
Those who are new to freelancing are often too afraid to ask
for more than a client offers. Thrilled to be making any money
at all, new freelancers typically agree to whatever figure is
proposed. I was no exception to this rule, but once I'd built
up my credits, I realized clients weren't about to offer me a
raise if I continued to play the role of doormat.
Once a freelancer has some experience, the bottom line becomes
more important. "Trivial issues" like prompt and appropriate
payment start to matter when you depend on your home-business
income to pay the bills.
Until you've tried negotiating, you may not realize how much
