Member You - Are you Aiming too High?
Having worked in the armed forces for years it can be difficult to know what to do regarding work once you have left.

What's your target achieving track record? Do you reach the majority of your targets within their set timeframes, or do you find yourself throwing up all kinds of rationalizations and reasons as to why the majority of your targets were not met? It might be because your target setting process is a little too much about numbers and not nearly enough about emotion, about how people feel about the various aspects of target setting, pursuing and achieving.
TARGETS MUST SPEAK TO THE HEART, NOT JUST THE HEAD
Targets that are an almost mathematical arrangement of "performance measure + target value + timeframe" speak loudly and clearly to the head. They say nothing to the heart. What makes a target speak to the heart is rich and sensual language that tells vivid and compelling stories of the future as if the t
When there is an opening to fill, a company has four basic approaches at their disposal:• Advertise the position on Internet job sites• Network• Probe the Internet for viable candidates• Use recruitersWhen a company advertises an opening on an Internet job site, they receive hundreds of resumes. It simply is too long of a process and financially prohibitive to review every resume and move through each step of the interviewing and selection process to fill the opening.Since decision-makers know other decision-makers, a hiring manager’s network can be quite extensive. In time, good candidates can be located. The problem with this approach is that the hiring manager may simply be too busy to engage in the time and human interaction required to make this happen.Employers and recruiters utilizing keyword searches scour the job sites in search of candidates to

Tell me what you have and let’s go. 10-second sound bites, three word emails, short hand text messages—speed of communication is king. You can either resist this fast pace and lose out, or make it work for you and watch it pay off nicely.Small business owners: get to the point fast and then get faster. Give your unique selling proposition without fluff. If you have a janitorial supply company, skip the long description. Try this instead: “You know how sometimes there are bad smells coming from restaurant kitchens or smoky bars?—we fix those problems. We have fun finding cleaning solutions.” It’s quick, unique and memorable. And you haven't wasted your prospects' time. He is impressed you know your business that well and can convey a meaninful m

Everyone has difficult clients, the ones that make you wince when they call, you dread meeting with, and you lose sleep thinking about sending your bill to and having to deal with their adverse reaction. However, there are simple steps you can take to improve your business relationships with these loose cannons. The following are six ways to handle difficult clients:1. Watch for warning signals. It's easier to not start a relationship than it is to sever an ongoing relationship.

This isn't magic. It's just our brain's RAS (reticular activating system) which is the part of the brain that decides what we give conscious attention to. Whatever turns your RAS on, is what your mind will obsess over. If you've got your RAS turned on to drinking 8 glasses of crystal clear, cool, cleansing, refreshing, sparkling water every day, then something changes.
