Live at 5 – Handling The TV Interview
| |
| Business or personal, everyone seems to love a great scandal, solid news (as long as it's not their own).
As flat as organizations are today any executive, manager can be reached for an interview. The most stressful is when you're sitting/standing with a TV camera facing you and the news person wants information, answers. Few professional newspeople (print, radio, TV, web, blog) are out to dig up dirt just to get the information...honest information. We're fortunate. We've had several years of being the interviewer (early in our career) and four confrontational interview courses. Done right the entire news interview experience can be good for the organization and you. The problem is you always have your best responses right after the interview. There's no retake in an interview...any interview.

Impossible Achievements
| |
| Last weekend, I did something that I thought was impossible. I broke a piece of wood into two pieces with my bare hand. I was in total shock afterward, but a good kind of shock. Breaking that wood was such a stretch for me that afterward, my mind started to play tricks on me. I wondered if I did really do it. Luck for me, there was a room full of people watching me and could verify that I did actually do it. AND I have the piece of wood to prove it! |

Practice make perfect when learning how to make cold calls.
| |
| I am good at making cold calls. I am so good that I stopped buying leads and started calling from the phone book. I made more sales cold calling the phone book than the leads I paid my hard earned dollars for. My dollars were hard earned at that time.
I equate cold calling from the phone book with cold calling door to door. Nevertheless, I reached a point in my development that I enjoyed cold calling the phone book. I had a technique and a script that worked. There was one huge problem with this system and yes it was a system. It was not duplicatible.

It is all part of a bigger picture……it is not the money that we get every other Friday! It is the joy, the memories, the time we get to cherish with our friends and family. |

Overcoming the riskavoidance
| |
| Today the incredible woes of our economy have shown how we have become addicted to “stuff”.
As we accumulate more and more stuff, we are continually inundated with marketing from businesses teaching us what we have is never enough. In order to be happy we need to go out and buy more. So we do.
Eventually came to the point of cheaper credit allowing us to borrow more money with the notion of paying it back later. And then we lost control.
while credit is tightening all around us and sales slumping in almost ever sector in our economy.
“… the underlying reality endures: after two decades in...extraordinary surges of borrowed money...a new era of risk-avoidance appears at hand.”Peter S. Goodman, 6.5% Out of Work, The New York Times, Saturday, November 8th, 2008, p. A20.

From Founder to Leader – Building a Company From an Idea
| |
| “Right now it's only a notion, but I think I can get the money to make it into a concept, and later turn it into an idea.”
-- Woody Allen
Much has changed since Woody Allen came up with this line in 1977 – but the basic premise remains – any entrepreneur has the ability to bring an idea to fruition with the right backing. However, it takes more than money to make it work, and one of the main points of pain in building a company is making the transition from founder to leader. It’s a tough transition, and one that many startup founders fail to make.

Become a Master in Listening
| |
| Did you know that the Chinese symbol for listening consists of 10 distinct elements? They combine meanings like “king, ear, eye, heart, sense and respect” into one symbol.
What does that tell you? Obviously the entire culture of the Far East perceives listening as extremely valuable and is trained to get a lot of information beyond the spoken word: Context, emotion, cultural background or intentions.
As a sharp contrast, our Western culture emphasizes verbal and written expression, powerful speaking, articles and books as part of individual development. This cultural underpinning is subconscious and might impact our readiness to listen effectively.

What Is A Life Coach
| |
| Dear Jane,
What is a life coach and how do I know if I need one?
What I do as a life coach is help my clients recognize and let go of the sabotaging thoughts and behaviors that have undermined their success, joy, and intimacy. We all have sabotaging thoughts and behaviors; sometimes it takes someone else to help us see them and to believe in us more than we believe in ourselves. So I’m also an energetic cheerleader and true believer. I will often see the possibilities for a client’s future before he or she can. My job is to inspire each person I work with to create an extraordinary vision and to become adept with the tools to create that vision. |
