The Art of Listening
When you think about effective communication, what comes to your mind? I bet that a lot of people will think about speaking. There is one important skill that is highly forgotten and that is listening. Do you cut off people often? Then you aren't a good listener. Learn to listen and it will help you to be a better communicator. Take a day at a time and do it even when you feel like you have something more important to say.

How to be an Effective Networker
We often get introduced to many people everyday. There is no telling who is connected to who. We don't even know who it is that we will want to connect with in the future. Here are some tips to help you maintain your connections in peace:
- Watch your mouth. Don't always say what you truly think about someone. Some things are best left unsaid. In fact, no one is perfect including you. So focus on the positives of your connections.
- Watch your keyboard. Don't waste your time, energy, and resources reaching out to connections who seem to have no time for you. When the season is right, they will respond. If the time never comes then let it go. Not all connections are meant to be used.

Reasons to Travel to other Parts of the World
We all seem to enjoy staying in one place sometimes while some of us have the travel bug. Well today I will share some reasons as to why you should let the travel bug bite you and here they are:
Travelling helps you to see your identity through the eyes of another
Travelling widens your knowledge of the methods of communication
Travelling can be an avenue for meaningful network
Travelling can help you to pick up a new hobby or interest or even find out that you had a talent that you never thought you had
So don't be afraid. The world is much smaller and travel is getting cheaper. Start to begin travelling a place at a time even if it is within a local area and when you get the wings you will be free to go global.
