Top 5 Things You MUST Teach Yourself

Karen Keller

The smart woman knows that she can learn and be taught. But there are certain things only you can teach yourself. These are at the top of the list of 5 things you MUST teach yourself.
  1. Learn how you learn best. Visual? Auditory? Accelerated? Do you require one-on-one contact or instruction? How does your mind work – in pictures or words? Knowing this will save you time and money later on as well as help you retain better what you’ve learned.

Nonverbal communication is anything from body mannerisms, postures, facial expressions, breathing, and physical proximity (or ‘personal space’). It can be consciously or unconsciously sent and received.
