Tour de France time
Interpersonal competence is one of the keys to personal and professional success that I discuss in my books. If you want to become interpersonally competent, you need to do three things. First, get to know yourself. Use this self knowledge to better understand others. Second, build strong, lasting, mutually beneficial relationships with the people in your life. Third, resolve conflict positively and with little disruption to your relationships.
If its July, then it’s Tour de France time. For me, the Tour was more interesting this year, because Lance Armstrong was back in the saddle. I’m always amazed at the complexity of bike racing. It’s a sport that requires amazing levels of fitness, the latest technology and high levels of teamwork.
If you’ve ever watched a bike race, you’ve seen teamwork and cooperation in action – even among competitors. I think there is a lesson about building relationships here. In bike racing, the person who is in the lead has to work the hardest. He or she has to deal with all of the resistance caused by the wind. The people behind the leader have it a bit easier as they have less wind resistance. They stay just behind the leader and one another. This principle is called “drafting.”

The trend began in France around
If you have ever been tempted into owning one of the many recreational vehicles available on the market, you are not alone. They are a great way to go on holidays, travel the world and live in comfort.
There are literally hundreds of different types that range from complete luxury mobile homes to Ford Transit vans that have been remodelled into mobile homes.
Many people think that the history of recreational vehicles started with the gypsies but that’s not actually true. In fact, this type of vehicle was first used by travelling entertainers such as showmen and circus performers. The trend began in France around 1810. Gypsies didn’t start using wagons to live in until around 1850.
