If someone does something just to say they did it (like running a marathon or climbing the Great Wall of China), but didn't enjoy the actual experience of having done it or the accomplishment itself, it was probably a waste of time. In fact, these are the same colors I chose for my childhood bedroom." Posted by Mark W.

I certainly am a fan of working from home and believe that you have a set boundaries and expectations so that you are productive and focused on getting things accomplished to be successful. I check emails, figure out what I need to accomplish for the day, but not much more. So I don't work much in the morning. every day.

For Generation Z, email is for diatribes and texting is for communication. Penelope, your true and accomplished voice at this time is writing. Like, I’m thinking that the future of all writing is short, twitter-like stuff, based on traits we see in Generation Z. This group only uses phones , and very few use phones for email.

Looking back I realize it was the one thing in my life that I could control, accomplish something, make progress, etc. Who knew that farmers have a telepathic line of communication. I think it's just part of settling in and learning to communicate our needs, even though it was rough to go through at the time.

You're accomplishing herculean tasks few women ever think of attempting. I recently read a post on the Remarkable Communication blog about how not to be a bad boyfriend, the premise being that this model from life can be used in so many more contexts than relationships with significant others. COULD you be one of these women?

But at the other end of the spectrum (where I am) if you just want to write well, you also need influence because if you are writing and no one is listening then you are not really communicating. First, I don't even see how you accomplish what you set out to do. I spent two hours trying to find this article in the New York Times.

It's only when they stop and try to reformulate their natural communication into an MBA-approved "assertive" statement that they seem to stumble and lose confidence. I published another book in 2009 entitled "Incarnate Leadership." I published a book in 2002 entitiled "Leading People from the Middle."

Or just continue to pity them all, no matter how much they accomplish in life? We're not abnormal, we had a vision and we set out to accomplish it. It's actually healthy, you visualize it and with that maybe move a step closer to accomplishing it. Would you prefer that we dismiss all the high achievers as freaks?

Re: the point about being "fuckable" — I think that "sexually desireable" communicates the intent quite well. I suppose I am becoming a more articulate and creative communicator, since I don't rely on fuck as a shortcut now. Does it clarify communication? And I really miss saying fuck.
