Asking open-ended questions in networking

Ask open-ended questions in networking conversations. This means questions that ask who, what, where, when, and how as opposed to those that can be answered with a simple yes or no. This form of questioning opens up the discussion and shows listeners that you are interested in them.

Medications and grapefruit juice

Never take medications together with grapefruit juice without a doctor’s OK.

Chemicals in grapefruit juice have an odd effect on medicines, possibly because they interfere with liver enzymes. This can cause either decreased or increased concentration of a drug in your bloodstream, making it less effective or increasing the risk of side effects.

Don’t make this mistake

A short-sleeve shirt, more precisely one with half sleeves, is not meant to be worn with a tie. Ties go only with full-sleeves shirts. Even better, avoid wearing short-sleeve shirts altogether, unless you want to casual look.

Never put up with unwanted telemarketing calls

Never put up with unwanted telemarketing calls. The first time someone calls you, simply request that your number be put on the "do not call" list. Find out whether the telemarketer’s employer makes calls for other companies (a common practice) and insist that they never call you on behalf of any organization.

Stress management starts with identifying the sources of stress in your life. This isn’t as easy as it sounds. Your true sources of stress aren’t always obvious, and it’s all too easy to overlook your own stress-inducing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
