# Communication Skills Vault

This is a **personal collection of communication tips**, lessons, and conflicting perspectives gathered from:

- Books I’ve read  
- Authors and teachers I follow  
- Work experiences across multiple industries and roles  
- Real-world practice from interviews, sales, teaching, customer service, project management, blogging, and coaching

Each file is organized by **author**, **job role**, or **source type**, using simple Markdown (`.md`) files for easy browsing, editing, and reuse.

## 🔎 How to Use This

You can casually browse this on your computer like a digital workbook or:

- **Convert tips into flash cards** for daily review  
- **Reflect on one concept a day** for writing prompts or journaling  
- **Discuss with students, clients, or your team** during meetings  
- **Post insights on social media** with your take or story  
- **Create your own system or curriculum** using these lessons

## 🧠 Ideas for Application

- Turn each tip into a **real-life scenario** and journal how you’d apply it  
- Identify the **conflicts** in advice and choose which to follow per situation  
- Build a **training deck or blog post** out of each section  
- Share **bite-sized insights** on LinkedIn, X, or your Discord/Slack group  
- Use it as a prep guide for interviews, client calls, or difficult conversations

## 📌 Why I Made This

I’ve read a lot, worked a lot, and learned a lot—but I don’t always remember it all without support. This is my **reference system**, a **memory refresher**, and a way to turn scattered knowledge into something reusable and sharable.
