I texted everyone I know. I drank coffee last night instead of Whiskey. I usually have a few drinks on Friday or Saturday nights. Years ago I had a problem with it.

I don't expect you to write a novel,but just a few of the great highlights. Or you could say, I'm fine. What do you do for fun, when your not working.

1. First decide if you want it because there are some sacrifices. I'm kind of happy much of the time doing what I want when I want.
2. Be a good listener. Develop a good sense of what makes other people tick.
The book How to Win Friends and Influence People lays it out. Sincerely be interested in other people and flexible.
3. Don't try to dictate or lead without consensus which can only be done slowly and many times the group will go in a different direction.

5. Dress well, but not ostatanteously.
6. Don't hold grudges and get beyond bad days.
