“I go through the text making sure I haven't used any big words. If I find any fancy adjectives have crept in, I replace them with small words like 'nice' and 'big'. I've liked these words ever since I was told not to use them in English class at school. After that, I check that the sentences are short so as people won't get confused and I shorten all the chapters so they won't get bored. I can't read anything complicated these days, my attention span is too short. Everyone else probably feels the same.” PeopleIfsFeelsI CanUseBigsSchoolUsedAttentionClassNiceHavensComplicatedSentencesChecksThese DaysBoredConfusedFancyChaptersToo ShortAdjectivesAttention SpanEnglish ClassSmall Words Author:Martin Millar

The effect of attention to quality, upon every man in the service, from the president of the concern down to the humblest laborer, cannot be overestimated.” MenStillsImportantMatterSeemsLyingPresidentAttentionQualityKnownEffectsHonestConcernRootsDecidedCompetitionEvery ManFactorsThese DaysBusiness SuccessLaborersGreat BusinessHonest Work Book:Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie: Top Biography Source: Autobiography of Andrew Carnegie: Top Biography
