On any one day you can massively change the direction of your life.
If someone hands you a million dollars, best you become a millionaire, or you won't get to keep the money.
Sometimes you need to stay in touch but be out of reach.
Take advantage of every opportunity to practice your communication skills so that when important occasions arise, you will have the gift, the style, the sharpness, the clarity, and the emotions to affect other people.
Make rest a necessity, not an objective. Only rest long enough to gather strength.
The more valuable you become [in your company], the more influence you have, the better communicator you are, you manage your time better, and you recognize people for their contributions. You also become more valuable as a spouse, parent and friend.
