EXCERPTS
It is the resistance that is causing you all the problems. . If you just accept that you feel bad right now, then you can accept your feeling without making yourself feel worse that you feel something negative.
As Eckhart Tolle wrote in his book, The Power Of Now: "By watching the mechanics of the mind, you step out of its resistance patterns, and you can then allow the present moment to be.
Accepting the way you are for right now, for this moment only, you free yourself from wanting things to be different in the future.
You can't change what has already happened to you. You can only choose to accept it. Once you accept it, you have done more to change it than you ever could do by not accepting it.
Don't try to be happy, choose it and be happy. Being happy will allow you to take control of your thinking. Being unhappy allows your thinking to take control of you. By not having control of our thinking and happiness we create our problems. By not being accepting, we allow unhappiness to step in. We cannot change this moment. Acceptance of this moment allows us to experience peace. We may not like what has happened but we can be at peace with it. This allows us the peace of mind to see what our best choices are now.

Building Trust Through Skillful Self-Disclosure - Harvard Business Review
Building Trust Through Skillful Self-Disclosure - Lynn Offermann and Lisa Rosh - Harvard Business Review
by Lynn Offermann and Lisa Rosh
11:37 AM June 13, 2012
Excerpts:
Psychologists have long known that self-disclosure is one of the hallmarks of intimate relationships. Revealing your motives, intentions, goals, values, and emotions, can increase liking and feelings of intimacy. There is considerable evidence that leaders who disclose their authentic selves to followers can build not only trust, but generate greater cooperation and teamwork as well. Yet successful and strategic self-disclosure is a leadership competency that many leaders have yet to acquire. Used incorrectly, or in the wrong corporate environment, self-disclosure can backfire.

Saving the Best for Last – Lessons from Pop Stars and Physicians | INFLUENCE AT WORK
Excerpt:
As far as your business interactions go, if you wish to persuade customers and clients to remember their experiences with you more favorably and to come back for more (and what business wouldn’t want this?) then you should be sure to focus an appropriate amount of attention on the final stages of your business interactions. Keep in mind that we are not minimizing the need for “what comes first” but simply also stating that there is a benefit to making sure customers and clients experience a high point of their interactions with you by ensuring a great send off!
