Do you stop and think about what is holding you back?   Look at the other side of this question to determine what motivates you.  Focus on these and work on the other things that prevent you from moving forward.

  Building Your Circles Building Circles is really  Building Relationships both personally and professionally. Everyone builds relationships on a constant basis and they are built at different levels.

It is easier to communicate in face-to-face meetings by observing body language.  If the best communication tool you have is the phone, listen closely to the voice, the tone, speed, softness,...
