Now, when I say ‘don’t write’, I don’t mean you should take a break or get away from the keyboard for a day. That means they’ll grasp your razor-sharp message perfectly, learn from it quickly and understand it clearly. You’ll learn more, understand it better and remember it longer.

Let’s face it, you’re always going to be learning, just by being engaged with words. This is where bloggers get a head start: if you have a blog, you have a good reason to put fingers to keyboard on a regular basis. Read Great Writing One of the best ways to learn to write is by studying what others have written.

No delicate tippy-tapping on the keyboard for me. Tehillah Hessler ( @thessler ) April 28, 2010 at 3:10 am EXCELLENT ARTICLE! It all worked out well in the end (thanks to him), and I learned an important lesson about taking cultural differences and perceptions into consideration while composing an e-mail. Or had he?

I will say, though, that Ali’s post was coincidentally timed – though you’ll have to tune in next week to learn why.

Process email out of your in-box and into an action/follow-up system or reference folder and you'll manage your email instead of it managing you.

You put hours of effort and study into learning a certain subject inside and out. You probably can’t remember when you last put the knowledge you learned in university to work in your everyday business affairs. You’ve probably forgotten half of what you learned, too. I didn’t pay attention to what I’d learned.

Just once in a while… I find I have those moments as well, and if you’re not right there with the pen or the keyboard, then you’ve lost it. I saw E.Gilbert’s TED talk shortly before I learned I suffered from Bipolar Disorder and what she said resounded so true it was scary. I learned all my sacres right here.
