Not so good at work though I admit, when you're trying to give a professional impression. Great advice for avoiding looking like a twit. Lose the strong opinions, know your limits and know when to shut up are particularly good. I don’t mind admitting when I’m clueless -which is often – I get used to it! ;) .

I'm the really quiet type. I've found listening really encourages people to share more thoughts and ideas. I think it's Wayne Dyer who says, "Would you rather be happy or right?" I'm all for happy!

I think if we entered the business world with these kind of ideas in my mind, we'd be far more successful. Very intelligent post, with advice that anybody can benefit from.
