A woman sees Dante everywhere; Karl runs and runs and cannot recapture his lost love; Celine, a Thai trans-woman, falls for an artist who is infatuated with her as he is with Ian Fairweather; an ex-con travels to Germany to meet his favourite author Herta Mueller; a soldier's wife comes back from the brink; a businessman meets a Muslim woman over a chair incident; Paul, a rat-historian, traces his 'mischief's' origins back to Kafka's Josephine the Mouse Singer. Whether a soldier's wife, someone observing life from her veranda in an everyday suburban neighbourhood, or a murder of crows regretting their lost chance at ruling the world, in this collection lies a multivariate of human, and other, experiences and voices that stretch across the borderlines of here and there, of what sounds impossible, but implacably located in the now of everyday life. This is a bunch of stories inhabited by real people/ beings who are all, in their own ways, undergoing a quest - whether running to or from love, from themselves and others or running towards better versions of themselves. They inhabit the world of literature and art, prisons, hospitals, war or back water towns. They are a multiplicity of wounds and celebrations where some of these stories are too big for more than one page or too many to be contained in one book. The author, as both narrator and voyeur, travels a tightrope strung between sadness and hopefulness. Many of these stories have been published and several have received awards, including The Soldier's Wife which won the Tod Hunter Short Story prize.

The Emotionally Intelligent Salesperson explores how our emotions impact the decisions we make, the behaviors we display, and our performance in a sales environment. By understanding our emotions and the emotions of others, we are in a better position to positively influence the sales conversation to achieve sales success. In this sales guide, learn how to: - improve sales performance from an individual and organizational perspective; - listen attentively to clients and prospects and become aware of their feelings; - express how you feel in appropriate ways to avoid derailing the sales process; - bring your attention to the present moment and focus truly on their needs.

This is more than just a moral compass; it's also a recipe for sales success. Take a step back and examine situations from a client's perspective to develop emotional skills, resilience, and authenticity to develop a high-performance sales culture to boost sales.

Change your focus. Change your focus to change your thoughts that will change your feelings that change how you emote to the world out there, and your choice for your change will change what you attract back at you. If you focus on thinking that everything will go wrong, it will. So if you can change your focus to believe that you can choose to take 100% responsibility for yourself, you can decide to back yourself to choose the thoughts that create the feelings that empower you to feel confident to influence your work choices. You choose. "e;What was I thinking to attract yet another intimidation experience in the workplace?"e; Giselle quietly asks herself, "e;I love the excitement of adventure in my life, but choosing another workplace with narcissistic behaviour is a bit too much of an adventure for me right now. As much as I try, I can't connect with Delilah, and then the other staff become afraid of connecting with me because they fear her wrath. Your choice. You can choose to change your focus from what others think of you to focus on what you choose to feel about yourself. You can choose to be who you need to be. You can decide to change the meaning of how you react to how you will respond. You can change how you think to change your feelings that will change your perception of your world, and you can choose how to respond to the world out there. Your change. Quantum Physics says that we are the past, we are the future, and we are endless moments of now that are filled with endless possibilities. If endless possibilities are available to everyone, then they are available to you.
