The magic sentence

I've previously mentioned that I receive daily snippets from the mind of John Maxwell.  I'm currently way, way behind.

When I do get around to listening to the backlog of bite-sized chunks of wisdom I listen out for one important term.

"This is what I know..."

This is what I'm interested in.

What the person knows.

Stories are good.

Humour is nice.

Short is preferred.

But I want to know what you've learnt about the topic.

Otherwise... Why would I listen?
