10 Lessons I Learned From My Mother
1. Establish and stay connected to a supportive community. My mother is genuinely interested in the welfare of her family and friends.

A Truly Unusual Sales Tip You Can Learn From Hitchcock Movies
Last week-end, my two cutie-pie nieces told me I have a formula for getting their attention. They said: "Auntie - you never tell us EXACTLY what you have planned for us - it drives us crazy!!!
