Thursday’s essay is called, "In judging others, we need to be aware of our limitations." You cannot make accurate predictions about how even top-rated individuals might behave in specific circumstances---even though you have judged their character positively in other instances. The point is simply that it is not easy to assess the character of a person.
In judging others, we need to be aware of our limitations
by Richard L. Weaver II
Excerpt:
In most cases in life, we decide who we like or dislike for no good reason. It is truly an unfair decision based on little or no evidence. But, if we waited until we knew everything about someone before we made up our mind, we would spend much of our time with no commitments to anyone—in relationship limbo. Not only do we not have access to the kind of information we need to make up our minds, but even when we think we have gathered sufficient evidence to confirm a decision, the person behaves in such a way as to counter our judgment—totally repudiating not just our evidence but our ability to root out the essential information we need.

When sharing S'Mores with friends invariably quotes come up from famous and not so famous people. Some quotes you remember far into next week, the next month, and in the end become a staple of your conversations retold numerous times.

Thursday’s essay is called, "Communication competence builds on competence." The most important reason that competent communication is important is because it has been proven to aid in gaining success in a wide range of social and occupational situations. It is a process through which interpersonal impressions are shaped and satisfactory outcomes are derived from an interaction. So, the real question becomes, how often do you offer others the impression you intend and derive the outcome you want? In this essay, I will define the characteristics perceived to comprise competent communication.
Communication competence builds on competence
by Richard L. Weaver II
Excerpt:
These five characteristics provide a fairly broad foundation; however, if you consider them overall goals to be achieved, you will find the important perception, listening, feedback, language, and nonverbal skills necessary for moving closer to achieving them on a regular basis. The nice thing is that awareness of these five characteristics that can establish a solid and interpersonally competent foundation and as you gain more experience — especially positive, supportive, and rewarding results — you will have constructive, practical, and productive personal examples that you can use to build an even more competent future. That is why it can be said that competence helps build greater competence.
