8.Look others straight in their eyes when you are talking to them
Ever had a conversation with someone who was talking to you but just couldin’t look into your eyes?What came to the top of your head when you saw that?Two things-Either they are shy or not sincere.If you want what you say to be valued-search those eyeballs…

..but create one by preparing well ahead of time.You don’t have to wait to be a certified life coach to start helping others.You don’t have to wait to be a published author to start writing… (For instance;My first book was compiled from some of the articles from my first blog).

The best life changing stories often come from pain,hurt and struggle,so trust your struggle.
19.Be yourself
Nothing beats sincerity!
20.Be a game changer
Invest in helping others and being a kind person.There is nothing as priceless as giving back.A little act of kindness goes miles away and always has a way of boosting one’s confident.
