Recently I received a letter from Jimmy Sweeney Newsletter about the story of  Sara, Don and Dawn on how they can get a job in this economic slow down…

Here’s what they experienced

Sara writes:

Because of the economy slowdown, the company I worked for in Florida closed it’s doors at the beginning of this year and my husband and I decided to relocate to Dallas Texas. Because I am new to this area and have zero contacts I needed something that made me standout. I feel that the [Secret Career Document] gave me the edge that I needed to standout.

I just can’t tell you enough what it did to my confidence, I knew that I had something that none of the other candidates had and it was an incredible feeling. Both VPs that were interviewing me took the time to read the
[Secret Career Document] and the interview took on a life of its own. They were jumping off their seats and so was I. The energy in the room was unreal and our interview lasted almost 2 hours! I still get butterflies in my
stomach every time I think about it.

Please feel free to use my testimony and to contact me at any time should you have any questions or need more information.

Best regards,

Sara C. Dallas TX

Hi Jimmy,

I got the job! The income I wanted, with all the benefits I wanted!! I got a call mid morning my time from the president/CEO. I am so thankful, especially in these economically difficult times, to find just exactly what I was looking for. There is no question in my mind that your system helped me to secure the job. While I have the experience and skill set they were looking for, I believe your system gave me that competitive edge overseveral other “highly qualified candidates” (the words of the president/CEO). The system
was the best money I’ve ever spent!!

Kindest Regards,

Don D. Oklahoma

Hi, Jimmy,

One week ago today, I purchased your Secret Career Document” two hours before my interview.  I filled it out and brought it with me for a
meeting with the Board of Directors of the company I was interviewing with. A few questions into the interview…I pulled it out.

Today, exactly one week later, I got a call from the Chairman of the Board letting me know they’d like to hire me, and I’m meeting him for lunch tomorrow to seal the deal.

Thank you, Jimmy. I was one of three finalists and I am convinced that it was the [Secret Career Document] that put me over the edge.

Dawn N. Rhode Island

How to Release Your Daily Stress?

Stress-Busting Ideas by Tom Hopkins
stress-releaseLet’s face it, on a list of high-stress careers, selling has to be up there with tightrope walking. Haven’t you had days when you felt that you actually were on a tightrope? I know I did.

To survive, and, more importantly, to maintain a healthy balance in life, we need to be proactive about releasing our daily stress in creative ways.

For some people, exercise is the best way to relieve stress. Physical activity is a civil way to release pent-up frustration without risk of causing harm to yourself or others.

Another idea is to schedule a brief decompression session each day. Go somewhere calm and peaceful where you can simply relax with no further demands on yourself. Once you’ve taken a few deep breaths and calmed yourself, this is when you’ll renew your dedication to your goals, your uniqueness, your purpose, and your faith in your ability to perform at peak levels. This could take as little as five minutes of your time to have a positive effect.

A third idea is to take up a hobby — something that uses different parts of your body or your brain. If you’re a parent of young children, I suggest a hobby that you might be able to share with your children. Or even better, make your children your hobby. Find out about something they’d like to learn, and learn it together. This method serves two purposes: you learn something new, and you create wonderful memories with your child.

Insulate yourself from the killing pace of change. Granted, we have to keep up when it comes to business, but do we really need to strive to have the latest and greatest in all aspects of our lives? My answer is no. We don’t have to be trendy in every aspect of our lives to keep up. On the contrary, you’ll find it easier to run at the front of the pack if you keep your life simple, and if you keep in touch with who you are and where you’ve come, rather than what you own.

Train yourself to look at time as a precious resource rather than a merciless taskmaster. I am a firm believer in time management — managing to enjoy my life while conducting business, rather than filling in every gap with a meeting or project that will get me further ahead.

Hang out with people with whom you have fun. Seek out and make friends with people who accept and affirm your worth as a person.

Accept your human nature. You’ll never have the perfect answer to every question. Don’t lead yourself or others to believe you do. Make a habit of searching for challenging new concepts and opinions contrary to your own to help you develop a better understanding of your world and how to live well in it.

Develop your own list of things that make you feel good. Keep that list handy and apply at least one item to your life on a daily basis in order to keep the negative effects of stress at bay.

Life Lessons From Dad

Advice from my Dad for Father’s Day by Harvey Mackay

super-dad
There’s an English proverb that goes: “One father is worth more than a hundred schoolmasters.”

Fathers can teach their children many important lessons. Father’s Day is Sunday, June 21, and it brings to mind some of the valuable lessons I learned from my father, Jack Mackay. I’ve shared many of them with you in my books and columns, but here they are, in one nice package, for the 64.3 million fathers out there.

My dad headed the Associated Press in St. Paul, Minn., for many years. He lived by deadlines. When he told his 10-year-old fishing partner, “Be at the dock at 7:30 a.m.” and I arrived at 7:35, I would be holding my fishing pole in one hand and waving bon voyage with the other. Time management 101.

When I began my career selling envelopes, I asked my father how I could make twice as much money as my fellow sales reps.

He asked me how many sales calls my peers made every day. I told him that everyone made about five calls a day, and I could match them call for call.

No good,” he said. “Do what they do and you’ll make what they make. Figure out how you can get to 10 calls a day and your income will double.”

We worked out a game plan, which became a life plan. I learned when the buyers were in the office and worked according to their schedules, which sometimes meant anytime from 6 a.m.-8 p.m. and Saturday mornings. I quit making cold calls, was among the first to get a cell phone and learned many other time management tips from my father.

TRUST is the most important five-letter word in business and in life. When I was only eight years old, he said: “Son, would you like to learn a lesson that might save your life some day?”

“Sure I would, Dad,” I answered.

“Just slide down the banister and I’ll catch you,” he urged.

I slid … and landed on the carpet. As I dusted myself off, he announced, “Never trust anyone completely. Keep your eyes open and your wits about you.

Similarly, my father encouraged me at a young age to keep track of all the people I met on Rolodex cards, now on my computer. He was a master networker. He knew where to get stories, much like I learned where to get sales.

Maybe the most important lesson my father taught me was that your best network will develop from what you do best. In my case that was golf. When I joined the sales game after college, where I had been a varsity golfer at the University of Minnesota, my father suggested I join Oak Ridge Country Club, which I couldn’t afford. Because Oak Ridge was historically at the bottom of the city golf league, I offered to play for them and try to win them a championship. Six months and numerous meetings later, I was admitted to the club where I gained access to many of the major companies around town.

My father also taught me that the big name on the door doesn’t mean diddly. You have to know who the decision makers are.

In addition, he warned me against telling anyone how I vote. That’s why it’s a secret ballot. The Democrats think I’m a Republican, and the Republicans believe I’m a Democrat.

My father’s greatest professional attribute was his nose for a good story and his indefatigable zeal in getting it. He taught me the same desire, determination and persistence for sales.

After a skiing accident that landed me in the hospital for 35 days in neck traction, he told me, “You can take any amount of pain as long as you know it’s going to end.”

My father taught me many more life lessons, among them:
• They don’t pay off on effort . . . they pay off on results.
• No one ever choked to death swallowing his pride.
• He who burns his bridges better be a damn good swimmer.
• Education is like exercise. As soon as you quit you begin to lose the benefits.
• It’s hard to soar like an eagle when you’re dressed like a turkey.
• If you win say little. If you lose say less.
• We are judged by what we finish, not by what we start.

Mackay’s Moral: One person can make all the difference in the world—a father, for example.

10 Changes in Windows 7 Media Center

Windows Media Center was first introduced in a special edition of Windows XP, but it remained a niche product — in large part because the OS was available only to OEMs. The major hardware vendors marketed media center PCs, but they didn’t always implement them well, and prices were generally much higher than a comparable Windows XP Home or Pro computer.

With Vista, Microsoft decided to include the Media Center application in the Home Premium and Ultimate editions of the operating system. Consequently, many more people were exposed to this feature, and it has gained considerably in popularity.

Windows 7 keeps WMC and adds it to the Business and Enterprise editions, as well (although IT administrators can easily turn off the feature, which may not be desirable in a business environment). In addition, Microsoft has made a number of changes to WMC in Windows 7, giving it a different look and adding some new functionality. Let’s look at the top 10 changes.

  1. Launch WMC tasks from the Start menu
  2. WMC desktop gadget
  3. Internet TV
  4. Music cover art background display
  5. Play games through WMC
  6. New detailed Guide information
  7. Music and Picture Favorites
  8. New look for Pictures Browser
  9. Slide show creator
  10. For sports fans

The Top 10 Way for Your Pay Per Click (PPC) Success

ppc-works

Whether you’re looking to do Paid Search Advertising yourself or to hire someone to do that for you – you should know what makes a Pay Per Click campaign successful – or you will end up suffering.

Paid search advertising may look deceptively easy to do. Countless times small business owners decide (and correctly so) that PPC is going to do wonders for their business and ‘dive’ right into it…

Unfortunately most of them don’t really educate themselves enough on what to do and how to do it, and then they end up spending a helluva lot of money, with little to no results. Next they declare that Paid Search Marketing doesn’t work and then they’re out!

Alternatively, the small business owner hires an overpaid, over-promising PPC management firm, and lets them do whatever they like – not knowing what to be aware of in order to make sure he’s getting the best possible results for the best price…

Well – despite the doom and gloom scenarios above, I’m here to tell you that PPC works for most businesses!

It works very well, and can be one of the best, quickest, most cost effective and best tracked medium of advertising/promotion there ever was… Sure, there are other ways you can market your business, but if you know how to, and if you want almost immediate results that are fully tracked – then PPC can’t be beaten.

OK, let’s get to the top 10 essentials of Pay Per Click marketing: Read More…

Why You Need to Take Action and Discipline Yourself?

The Time to Act by Jim Rohn

discipline-actionEngaging in genuine discipline requires that you develop the ability to take action. You don’t need to be hasty if it isn’t required, but you don’t want to lose much time either. Here’s the time to act: when the idea is hot and the emotion is strong.

Let’s say you would like to build your library. If that is a strong desire for you, what you’ve got to do is get the first book. Then get the second book. Take action as soon as possible, before the feeling passes and before the idea dims. If you don’t, here’s what happens . . . .

YOU FALL PREY TO THE LAW OF DIMINISHING INTENT.

We intend to take action when the idea strikes us. We intend to do something when the emotion is high. But if we don’t translate that intention into action fairly soon, the urgency starts to diminish. A month from now the passion is cold. A year from now it can’t be found.

So take action. Set up a discipline when the emotions are high and the idea is strong, clear, and powerful. If somebody talks about good health and you’re motivated by it, you need to get a book on nutrition. Get the book before the idea passes, before the emotion gets cold. Begin the process. Fall on the floor and do some push-ups. You’ve got to take action; otherwise the wisdom is wasted. The emotion soon passes unless you apply it to a disciplined activity. Discipline enables you to capture the emotion and the wisdom and translate them into action. The key is to increase your motivation by quickly setting up the disciplines. By doing so, you’ve started a whole new life process.

Here is the greatest value of discipline: self-worth, also known as self-esteem. Many people who are teaching self-esteem these days don’t connect it to discipline. But once we sense the least lack of discipline within ourselves, it starts to erode our psyche. One of the greatest temptations is to just ease up a little bit. Instead of doing your best, you allow yourself to do just a little less than your best. Sure enough, you’ve started in the slightest way to decrease your sense of self-worth.

There is a problem with even a little bit of neglect. Neglect starts as an infection. If you don’t take care of it, it becomes a disease. And one neglect leads to another. Worst of all, when neglect starts, it diminishes our self-worth.

Once this has happened, how can you regain your self-respect? All you have to do is act now! Start with the smallest discipline that corresponds to your own philosophy. Make the commitment: “I will discipline myself to achieve my goals so that in the years ahead I can celebrate my successes.
