Book preview

Clarity in daily life can be challenging for many people. This is especially true in these times we live in with today’s fervent need to achieve.

The media that we see and all the input that we receive daily contributes to the confusion.

Many are connecting using text messages, emails, personal contacts, Instagram’s, Twitter and Facebook; and these social tools likely contribute to attention deficit.

I have noticed that people forget what's most important.

These are the people they are in communication with.

Many are driven by the self and forget to really listen to others. They forget to hear what a person is saying.

Listening is a communication tool that promotes clarity.

Listening helps to solve conflicts.

Imploring Love in all situations at the center is essential.

This book is about becoming a better listener and having more clarity and less confusion in life.

I hope you enjoy this easy to read book and that you share it with your friends. We can make this world better for all of us when we each do our part.
