E-mail Etiquette: Are We Using It Right?

Marshall Cavendish Corp/Ccb | 2009 | ISBN: 981261673X | 184 pages | PDF
E-mail is one of the greatest inventions of our lifetime phenomenally affecting the way we communicate. Reading, writing and managing e-mail is taking up an increasing amount of our time. But are we using it right? E-mail can be used to stay in touch whether we are traveling or working from home. Perhaps we can relax standards when it comes to personal e-mails, but e-mailing for business purposes has reached a new dimension. People whose jobs never used to involve writing skills are now replying dozens of e-mails each day. But under such pressure to respond quickly, what happens to the quality of the messages exchanged? The bottom line remains: just as body language helps you to making an impression in person, what you write and how you write it affects what people think of you and your organisation. Be it a thank you note, a meeting reminder, a proposal or a sales pitch, a well-written message that looks and sounds professional will make it easier for people to want to do business with you. It will help people feel good about communicating with you and help you achieve the right results.

Dan Castro conducted ten years of research into the lives of thousands of people throughout history who overcame extreme obstacles. He wanted to know if they were following any kind of pattern that could help explain their success. After ten years, Dan concluded that they are following a pattern, and that this pattern is both observable and exlpainable. In CRITICAL CHOICES THAT CHANGE LIVES, Dan put the best of the best stories side by side so others could see the same patterns he saw.

• What heroes choose to focus on in the heat of the battle.

Review
Mixing modern technology with witchcraft, Sirona Knight (A Witch Like Me) and Patricia Telesco (An Enchanted Life) offer Cyber Spellbook: Magick in the Virtual World. Although thousands of Wicca enthusiasts use the Web daily for research and to meet people, they may not realize their computer's witchcraft-related properties. For example, a keyboard can represent "creative flow," with the "delete" key an instrument for banishing and the "shift" key helping one shift between the ordinary and magickal worlds.

The authors explain ways to integrate technology (from cell phones to lawn mowers) with spells, making this a truly up-to-date Wicca resource.
