For example, I invest in real estate and when meeting with a seller I examine EVERYTHING. I examine them as a person, their reasons for selling, their <em>real</em> needs and not just their wants. By observing and solving these problems for the seller, I often times can get what I want. Yeah I learned a lot from school (both educational and non-educational LOL). It was only <em>after</em> school that my actual experience education began and my education and learning is a never ending process, as I'm sure you know. Thanks for stopping by. Hope to see you again :) Thanks, Kelly and welcome to my blog :)

People would do anything he said after he told them obscure facts about themselves, and he had no staff, just those keen powers of observation. That, and the advantage of being fictional. :) Still, Arthur Conan Doyle used Mr. Holmes to teach me a lot about how to observe keenly and the benefits of doing so. Sounds like college did the same for you. Good food for thought here. I enjoyed it!
