Golden Rule #19
Effective communication is the key to self-determination.
There is no under-estimating the importance of communication. The most successful people you know are usually also excellent communicators. They may not have excelled in all areas of communication but they have found some way to express their ideas and share them with others.
If you recognize that you have weaknesses in the area of communication, then strive for improvement. Don’t only focus on written communication but examine your skills in spoken communication, especially public speaking. Another critical area is that of body language which communicates so much without words.
Communication alone will not lead you to success. But improvement in those areas will become a tremendous asset that will follow you wherever you go and will always serve you well.
