Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

I am bummed it isn't at least 200 more pages. I am finished, and now more focused on my writing than ever before. This book solidified my avenue of attack. My resolve is made. <inside jokes about portions of the book.>
Of course if it were longer, I'd have more of a reason to hold off on writing. Perfect size.
If you listen to the audiobook, you will most likely need to purchase the paper version for notes. just an fyi.
