Bedside Manners
The best doctors are successful because they have immaculate bedside manners. Some of the traits of great bedside manners include:
- Being a good listener.
- Using easy-to-understand terminology.
- Caring about their patient’s concerns.
- Being non-judgmental.
- Respectful of their patient’s time.
These traits are second nature to good doctors. Maybe more business owners should go to medical school.
The 12 Days of Christmas Homeless Push
This is a cross-posting from the 12for12k blog. Throughout December, the 12for12k focus is on the homeless and how you can help in your own towns and cities.
There’s no donation widget this month – we’re offering a more hands-on challenge. By all means, if you wish to donate cash as well as the time and items we’ll be suggesting, that’d be great as well. So, with that said, let’s get into our streets this month and really help those that need it the most.
Thank you.

Give to Get
Giving up is easy. Close our eyes, wait for problems to go away – anyone can do that. The highway of life is full of sleepers and short stay hotels of those that have given up.
Getting back up? That’s the difficult part. But think how many times you’ve been ready to give up in the past, only to keep getting back in the game for more.
No-one likes giving up, but sometimes it’s the only natural thing to do. How, and if, you get up is the separator.
