Resolution, 2014: Two ears, One mouth . . .

I tend to talk a lot, sometime too much, for various reasons, some better than others. I met a guy at a party before Christmas, a successful lawyer in New York. He said that the most influential thing anyone ever said to him was told to him by his mentor: "When you wake up in the morning and look at yourself in the mirror, what do you see? Two ears and one mouth. It's that way for a reason."

My resolution for 2014 is to talk less and listen more.
