And welcome to morning cereal

Okay, good morning and welcome to Monday.

As you might recall, we're off this week,

but not to worry, I'm not gonna leave you

empty handed this week,

especially on a Monday.

So, I'm gonna leave

you with a quote today

and then just a little bit of a recap

of some of our book review.

So here's the quote,

"To get your day going

in a positive direction."

It's by Katherine Patterson and she said,

"Mountains do not rise

without earthquakes."

End quote.

And as you know, we've been reading

through Dale Carnegie's

How to Win Friends and Influence People,

and we are currently in

part four of the book.

So let's just take a

quick look back at part one,

which was entitled,

Fundamental

Techniques in Handling People.

And here are Dale

Carnegie's three principles

from that section.

Here's principle number one,

don't criticize, condemn, or complain.

Principle number two was,

give honest and sincere appreciation.

And then principle number three is,

arouse in the other person an eager want.

Okay, we'll be back with regular

programming on next Monday,

but I'll pour another small bowl of

morning cereal for you

and have it ready for you

tomorrow morning as well.

Hey, have a fantastic day.
