ernesto sirolli: want to help someone? shut up and listen!
When most well-intentioned aid workers hear of a problem they think they can fix, they go to work. This, Ernesto Sirolli suggests, is naïve. In this funny and impassioned talk, he proposes that the first step is to listen to the people you're trying to help, and tap into their own entrepreneurial spirit. His advice on what works will help any entrepreneur.

Do not waste any time thinking you are stuck - you can take control over your life, and change it faster than you might think. |
"If you cannot admit that you are afraid, you are pretending to yourself, and to others. Your friends will feel your fear, even if you do not.

In the role of uncle, you have a chance to forge those ties in positive ways with your nieces and nephews.
