In a world where good manners appear to a diminishing commodity, the ability to be gracious is becoming something of a rarity.

It’s so annoying…
Seriously, though. Any success I’ve had with articles I’ve written, landing jobs, or in gaining new clients, has been, in some way or other, thanks to Paula. She is an absolute dream to work with: patient, skilled, highly knowledgeable, and—above all—a thoroughly wonderful human being. In this sense, Paula is indispensable. Even at my most broke I’d find a way of keeping Paula working for me.”

Fear will take your emerging ideas, tear them to shreds and drive a bulldozer over them, all the while laughing in your tear-stained face. It’s your job to prevent that happening.
