    Wisdom guides you.

7. An intelligent man thinks he knows everything.
    A wise man knows that there is still something to learn.

8. An intelligent man always tries to prove his point.
    A wise man knows there really is no point.

9. An intelligent man freely gives unsolicited advice.
    A wise man keeps his counsel until all options are considered.

10. An intelligent man understands what is being said.
      A wise man understands what is left unsaid.

11. An intelligent man speaks when he has to say something.
      A wise man speaks when he has something to say.

12. An intelligent man sees everything as relative.
      A wise man sees everything as related.

13. An intelligent man tries to control the mass flow.

Intelligence is really good but wisdom achieves better results.

"Twirl"

Last week, the word "Twirl" in illustration Friday.com. At first, the spoon star in hot cholocate, although it was not challenge. I decide to draw above here. During research the Ice Dance's body images from Google, I was making the modelling clay into a woman with her body sharp. It was challenge and I took 3 hours to complete it.  I love a beautiful & light blue dress woman skates as the Ice Dance.

Seth Godin's Blog: Speakerphone voice

When the speakerphone is on in the conference room, do you talk differently?  by Seth Goldin It's pretty common. We breathe from a different spot, hold our chest differently, constrict our throats and generally try to shout our words across the ocean. The people listening on the speaker are used to it. The people in the room with you, less so. Human beings don't have a long cultural history with microphones. We don't instinctively understand that they actually work. So we shout instead. And shouting changes how we're believed, trusted and ultimately heard. Learning to use a microphone is a great skill. When you speak normally, it turns out that the microphone has plenty of volts, watts and amps on hand to move your voice all the way to Latvia if you want it to. And then your words will actually be heard. Resource:  Godlin, Seth. "Speakerphone Voice. "  Sethgodin Typepad  Last Modified: Nov 11 2017. http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2017/...
