@ATT you should pay your techs in Atlanta whatever they want to end the walk out. I’ve been waiting for three days for someone to show up. Now you’re saying next Tuesday. Ridiculous. (Searches for new internet provider . . .)

@LisaMCornwell @AJGAGolf Some of my best friends and memories were made during those years, which had a lot to do with both of y’all❤️ This one has hit me so hard.

Interesting read for those of us who study and teach advocacy.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

It's a mistake to stop saying "um" and "uh" altogether.

Evidence: filler words signal that new information is coming, making it easier for listeners to understand and remember what comes next.

Hesitations don't make you sound weak. They help you... uh... communicate clearly.

@nbanteka @PacificMcGeorge They were awesome and set the bar high for the next class!

Amazing to teach trial ad at a school equipped to allow students to watch jurors deliberate in real time.
Loved teaching my first class @PacificMcGeorge. I had to make the students leave the courtroom every night.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

An easy way to pick the wrong career is to put your image above your interests and identity.

A motivating job isn't the one that makes you look important. It's the one that makes you feel alive.

Meaningful work isn't about impressing others. It's about expressing your values.

There's still time to register for NITA's upcoming webcast, "Kids Say the Darndest Things... In Court," featuring NITA Board and Faculty, Angela Vigil. https://t.co/MUo9ZcJYdF

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The most important quality in a mentor, teacher, or coach is not how much they know. It's how much they care.

Caring is more than taking pride in your success. It's feeling joy as you progress.

The people you want in your corner are the ones who celebrate your growth.

So good to be back competing live at GSU’s William Daniel Invitational with our amazing Emory Mock Trial Team!
