104 7. I consciously avoid the use of jargon with those who may not understand it.8. I consciously avoid the use of slang words and colloquialisms with those who may be put off by them. 9.

105 10. I recognize that how I say something is just as important as what I say.11. I analyze my communication style to determine what nonverbal messages I send and how well they conform to the meaning I desire to get across. 12. I carefully consider whether my message would be best understood by my receiver in a face-to-face meeting, over the telephone, or in writing.
106 13. I form opinions about what others say to me based on what I hear them saying rather than what I think of them as a person. 14. I make a genuine effort to listen to ideas with which I don't agree. 15. I look for ways to improve my listening skills.

122 Well, son, I'll tell you: Life for me ain't been no crystal stairWell, son, I'll tell you: Life for me ain't been no crystal stair. It's had tacks in it, And splinters, And boards torn up, And places with no carpet on the floor— Bare. But all the time I'se been a-climbin' on, And reachin' landin's, And turnin' corners, And sometimes goin' in the dark Where there ain't been no light. So, boy, don't you turn back. Don't you set down on the steps. 'Cause you finds it's kinder hard. Don't you fall now— For I'se still goin', honey, I'se still climbin', And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
