Marshall Goldsmith Quotes
If we can stop, listen, and think about what others are seeing in us, we have a great opportunity.

We can then begin to make the real changes that are needed to close the gap between our stated values and our actual behavior.

And, at the same time, men want nothing more in this life than to merge completely with a woman's devotional love and wild energy.
