A start

What’s the story? What do you know? What’s the news? How you doing?

To some they mean something, to others very little. But all these phrases and short questions serves us in many ways.

They open conversations that can lead to great things. They easily connect us with other human beings. They force us into an immediate state of reflection and open sharing. They ultimately help us progress.

So the next time someone asks, don’t waste the opportunity and mumble “nothing” under your breath. Take the golden moment you have been gifted and continue to grow.
