How to Deal with Dissatisfaction
Conquering general dissatisfaction can seem difficult at times and maintaining commitment can be problematic. The fact is that setbacks are part and parcel of growth and development. Being able to accept the bad times with the good times means being able to roll with the punches. Accept that there are good days and bad days and become more flexible and pliant to the obstacles in your way. Make the promise to yourself that no matter how dissatisfied you feel now life is only
A business without a dream is like a life without a purpose
I launched my present company, E-Myth Worldwide, in 1977 to transform the way small business owners do the work of growing their companies.

What we learned from those 50,000-plus owners could fill a dozen books.

You Can’t Get There From Here.

Think Small
Thinking small is much easier to do and fears of achieving don’t arise. To think big causes stress and is hard to deal with, we must always be moving toward a goal and overcoming ourselves. My mind says it’s easier to stay where I am because it won’t be worth it if I do advance.

How to Deal: Difficult Leaders
Your office morale is low, although your productivity is at a constant, sub par level. The atmosphere in the organization is that of sheer terror and dissatisfaction, not because of a near miss deadline, but because a supervisor has an overly authoritative approach to leading his team, or department. Such a scenario is not as far-fetched as it may seem. In many organizations, an over zealous (but well meaning) supervisor or manager may exercise severe leadership tactics in order to create the most successful team possible. Unfortunately, for the employees, such a leadership leads to dissatisfaction to the organization and later, a loss of talent for the organization as dissatisfied employees begin to leave. In this edition of Astronology, The How to Deal trilogy will discuss difficult managers.
What’s All The Fuss About Twitter?

Exceptional Prospectors
Over the past 14 years, my team has conducted thousands of psychological assessments and interviews with both managers and salespeople about their prospecting and sales behaviours. Our research has consistently revealed that salespeople often experience their greatest difficulties, dissatisfaction, and anxiety at the prospecting stage of the sales cycle. Meanwhile, Sales Managers repeatedly express their frustration that they cannot find salespeople who are competent, confident, and motivated to prospect for new business. Prospecting requires sales people to establish contact with people who might buy your products or services. Whether it is phone, face-to-face or group prospecting, inbound or outbound, nothing gets sold until you get in front of and/or talk to potential buyers.

HOW CAN A LIFE COACH SUPPORT ME IN GETTING WHAT I WANT ???
What do you want? What do you really really want? When was the last time you asked yourself that question? Most of us are wrapped up in the day to day of our lives, and like a hamster, we run and run as fast as we can, panting and puffing, making a lot of noise running within his wheel, only to come out to have a look around and see that everything is the same, in exactly the same place. Nothing has really changed. From time to time, it is just necessary to stop and ask ourselves, what we want and if we are "running" in the direction of our dreams, and unlike the poor little hamster, going nowhere!

Successful Interviewing
The primary reason for the failure of most interviews to identify a truly outstanding candidate is that most interviews focus on the capabilities, background and experience of the prospective employee. This approach ignores the fact that the interviewee is a human being that the employer is going to have to live with day after day. There is a way to stack the odds in your favor and significantly increase the likelihood that you will be satisfied with the employee that you select. It all depends upon how you conduct the employee interview.
