Amongst the negativity, complexity and concern about issues that are affecting people across the globe, a more positive and upbeat ‘success’ theme for this month’s quotes:
‘Success is not measured by height attained but by obstacles overcome.’
BRUCE JENNER
‘Passion plus vision plus action is the equation for success.’
MARILYN KING
‘Whoever I am, or whatever I am doing, some kind of excellence is within my reach.’
JOHN W. GARDNER

GRAMMAR/COMMUNICATION NOTES
A couple of words this month that incorporate meaningful expression in one word instead of several:
• Meliorism – the notion that the world can be improved by human effort.
• Verisimilitude – the appearance or semblance of truth or reality / seemingly true
Please continue to let me know if you have any grammar or communication notes that you would like me to include or if you have any comments.
Warmest & best wishes,,
