The Platinum RuleTM: Relationship Strategies for Connecting with Anyone
Personality differences: they're what make life so rich and fascinating and often so frustrating, too. Most of us never figure people out. We just ricochet through life, getting along with some people and dealing as little as possible with others because they're so different from us. Everyone knows the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have done unto you." But this habit can turn off those who have different needs, wants, and hopes than we do. Instead, the real key to making a difference is to apply The Platinum RuleTM. "Do unto others as they would like done unto them!" Once you understand and master The Platinum RuleTM, you'll be able to build bridges to people of any style in any personal or business situation.
