I was reading the other day, and something I read popped out to me, and that was about how I should prioritize others unselfishly. The thought is ‘Don’t be selfish and push your way to the front, don’t try to impress others by sweet-talking your way to the top. Put your own ego aside, and help others get ahead by thinking of others first. Stop being obsessed with getting your own advantage and looking out only for yourself, take an interest in others and lend a helping hand.’ Too many times we only focus on ourselves, when one of the true secrets of success is focusing on others. The rewards for us will come later. Join me today in also looking out for the benefit of others.

Do you ever wonder if you’re wasting your time talking with others? Here’s a two-part series on conversation ROI.
