“Finding the right time is like discovering a social portal which opens a gate for others to receive your message and "get you." You only get one chance to make a first impression and if the gate begins to close, you may never get another opportunity to walk through it. Watch for the openings and synchronize your movements with your intended recipient.”

“All in Good Time. The ancient Buddhist saying shares, “When the student is ready, the master will appear.” When the timing is right, lessons are learned and miracles can happen. However, when the timing is “out of sync,” even the best of intentions can be met with resistance.”

“Eloquent speakers, communication experts, seasoned actors, and musicians all understand the transforming power of the pause. They know all too well that strategic silence and a well-placed whisper can speak louder than words in delivering a memorable presentation. It captures people's attention . . . creating eager anticipation for your next words.”

“I love to read. However, there have been times when certain books did not resonate with me because the timing was off kilter. Their lessons fell flat because their messages were not pertinent, relevant, or interesting to me at the time. Then, when I would re-read the same book years later, it could rock my world and change my life for the better. The message was more in alignment with where I was at that moment in time. With most anything, just because your timing may not be good now, does not mean it won’t be better later.”

People feel the most comfortable with and gravitate more quickly to the people with whom they are the most alike.

This alignment will build a sense of rapport and commonality which will help your conversations progress smoothly and more successfully.”

“The Rhythm of Relationships
It’s not a mystery that there are certain people with whom we "click" and others with whom we don’t. In the movie, Forrest Gump, Forrest proclaimed that he and Jenny got along like "peas and carrots." I once heard Tony Robbins say that if you are with the right person, a relationship does not take a lot of work. When relationships are in rhythm, everything is made easier.”

“When the sun and the moon will be identically seen together,
When the wind and the water will meet in alliance,
When the stars will shine as bright as your emotions,
You will find her holding your hands and taking you towards the eternal love of the miraculous world.”
