PERSONAL UPDATE: My eye surgeries for cateracts apparently went very well. Vision is still a little blurry in the right eye; expect that to improve over the next few days. Thank you to everyone for your concern. It is very much appreciated.

SHORT NUGGET FOR THE NOGGIN;
HOW TO ATTEND A SALES/TRAINING MEETING
by Gymbeaux
As mentioned in the article above A Bad Way To Use Your Smart Phone, letting your phone ring is always a bad thing while in a meeting; answering it is even worse. There is little difference however when you put your smart phone on vibrate and then leave it on the table so that when it does go off it alerts everyone in the room as it dances across the table.
Here are some rules that everyone ought to make their personal rules for attending events:
1. Be on time.
2. Stay to the end.
3. Time block the event so nothing else interrupts your attendance
4. Turn your phone off and do not leave the room every time it vibrates
5. Realize that very few things in life are so important that they cannot wait for a better time to respond
6. Advise your customers, friends and family to leave messages and that you WILL call them back when appropriate and that from time to time you do turn your phone off. Then make certain you return calls.
7. Side conversations CAN and ARE heard contrary to popular belief. If you must talk, add to the meeting by talking to the presenter instead of your neighbor.
THE KILLER HABIT: When an “outside” presenter conducts a meeting or class, send them a handwritten thank you note. Most presenters/trainers are donating their time and effort, a little thank you goes a very long way. Handwritten personal thank you notes are quickly becoming a lost art and a thing of the past, pity!
