I hadn't learned to read by third grade, which wasn't unusual for some kids. I knew something was wrong because I couldn't see or understand the words the way the other kids did. I wasn't the least bit bothered - until I was sent back to the second-grade classroom for reading help after school.
Barbara CorcoranGood salesmanship is nothing more than maximizing the positive and minimizing the negative.
Barbara CorcoranI like to wake up and just feel gratitude. Gratitude for waking up, for my health, for my kids, for my family. A lot of times in the evening, I'll write down what my goals are for the next day; When I wake up, I look at that list again. I meditate.
Barbara CorcoranI got along with people very well at every job I had, people liked me and I liked them and I loved being on my feet.
