Do you know a powerful person?
Today's quote is "Real Gentleness in a Person is a Great Power".
A week ago I got an e-mail from someone touching on this point. An employer was given a choice to hire one of two prospective candidates. One was aggressive and curt but had all the excellent skills required for the job. The other was nice and polite but not your "A" student.
The employer chose to hire the candidate with the excellent skills. A few weeks later the employer is looking to hire the "nice" candidate. When asked what happen to the first person, the employer said - that person was fired for being rude when dealing with a client.
We would all rather work with a person that is gentle than one who is not. The gender of the person does not matter. We all like gentle people.
More power to all you gentle people out there!
