  9. Some facts of life… • Whatever you want to achieve in life..communication is VITAL to achieve what you want to achieve. • Happiness will not be meaningful if you have nobody to share your feelings with. • Business is about your ability to “market” your ideas and convincing the other party to “agree” with you. • How much you learn depends on how much you listen and interact with the people who teach you. • Your ability to “change for the better” depends how much you “know” about yourself.. (intra personal communication).

  10. Consider this… • Medical researchers identified that a whole range of health threats can result from the lack of close relationships: • A lack of social relationships jeopardizes physical wellbeing to a degree similar to cigarette smoking, high blood pressure etc • Socially isolated people are 2-3 times more likely to die earlier than those with strong social ties ( marriage, friendship, religious and community ties all seem to increase longevity). • Poor communication can contribute to coronary heart disease
