ARTArticle7 Insider Secrets For Hiring The Best Résumé WriterFinding the right person to create your résumé can be a tricky process. It’s important to know the facts about résumé writing before you make your decision. Below are 7 secrets for making the right hire. 1. Be willing to pay more for a better résumé. If you call up a résumé writer and ask them how much a résumé costs and they actually quote a price, hang up and run the other way! This means they charge a one-price-fits-all and you’ll get a one-size-fits-all, generic résumé. That won’t do for serious job seekers today.ARTArticle7 Key Stages to Building a Customer PipelineDoes your business feel like a roller coaster ride where sales are either at an exciting high or they’re at a panic level low? This pendulum is stressful on your cash flow. It’s also highly stressful on your mindset.ARTArticle7 Mistakes You May Not Know You Are Making- Proper EtiquetteWhen it comes to your appearance, you must give careful attention to your dress, grooming and accessories. Potential clients or employers will judge your quality of work by your physical appearance. What does your image say about you? Consider these important facts: 67% of first impressions are accurate. People judge you firstly by what you wear, then by how you speak, and then by the words you say. In six seconds you have made a lasting impression, and 55% of that impression is made up of non-verbal communication.ARTArticle7 Secrets to Mastering a Quantum Success Leap in Your New YearSuccess isn’t being able to do 5,000 things really well. Success is being able to consistently do a few things really well – 5,000 times. The New Year is almost here! A time for excitement and new beginnings! For me, it never loses its “newness” or luster. I’m an optimist and always look at the cup as half full. I honestly think I enjoy the thought of new beginnings, goals, and the possibility of reaching new heights (and all that comes with each New Year) more than any other part of the holiday season. I tend to dream big.ARTArticle7 Steps to Setting and Achieving Goals7 Steps to Setting and Achieving Goals Setting goals Perhaps one of the most important things you will do to ensure your success is goal setting. Many people, however, fail to recognize the importance of setting goals and tend to pass it over as unimportant. But nothing could be more vital to your success than learning how to properly set goals. One element that all successful people have in common is that they set specific goals and have devised a plan for achieving them.ARTArticleA Clear and Present Mind - Meditation and FlowMost people lead normal lives. Those lives are, generally speaking, repetitive - where anything spectacular rarely happens. Of course, the normal life is punctuated by the spectacular - falling in love, marriage, the birth of a child, the odd special holiday. But, generally speaking, normal lives plod along. Research tells us that at least 96% of us are normal and that normal people are rarely really engaged in or attentive to what they are doing in the here and now - research estimates that the normal person is only 1% engaged.ARTArticleA Closer LookThis article is about where you are now, how far you’ve come and a closer examination of how you see things now. “If I knew then what I know now, “comes to mind. This is a mere reflection of experiences and opportunities that have risen out of your past. People change, circumstances change and they will continue to change and grow with or without your input. If you have not learned to do so, release all the negativity that surrounds you. Where there is positive thoughts and action bring about positive results.r ARTArticleA Conversation with Dad: The Shock that Rocked My WorldWhen you show up with love in your heart, what is returned to you is pure love.ARTArticleA DreamDare yourself to dream. No matter how big or how small, just dream. Dream about where you want to go in life. Dream about doing what it is that you wish to do. Dream of a world the way you wish it was. Don’t be afraid to dream, let your imagination take you away. No place is to far nor too near. Once you dream of how you want things to be, the universe will help you make your dream come true. Of course you will have to do work on your part to make it happen as well. Dream not only about material things, but about harmony and well wishes to everyone.ARTArticleA LifetimeA lifetime of love begins with a single step, a journey of a thousand miles. A new experience offers a thrill and an adventure. A tiny, precious hand to hold is all grown up now. A smile when you hear those special words make your heart skip a beat. A day at the office, a night on the town, children tucked in their beds, running errands and paying bills, time to retire for the evening, all in a day’s work.r ARTArticleA Living Spiritual EnergyRecently, the question came up again: “What is HoloMagic?” "God" could be an accurate term, but it's got a lot of other stuff associated with it. Infinite Intelligence is clearly the one that Napoleon Hill opted for. The way I explain it most often is that it's connected with that quantum world, which is nothing, nothing but a world of spirit, a world of energy. And when you make that leap in consciousness, you activate it-and of course, any skeptic could say, well, "The Law of Self-Fulfilling Prophecy is easy. You made it happen, right?" But we're saying no.ARTArticleA Lonely HeartA lonely heart, filled with sadness, once was so full of life. Two hearts were beating as one for such a long time. Time was their friend, adventure was their middle name. Sitting curled up in each other’s arms they’ve watched many sunsets. The seagulls flying overhead made them smile as they watched them fly off in the distance. The sounds of the waves coming into shore took away all thoughts, leaving them feeling peaceful.ARTArticleA Loving PathEverything you say and do should have a loving undertone to it. Every single word spoken to your mate, co-worker, or stranger should be with the mindset of talking to yourself. By this I mean, how do you like being spoken to? Are you short fused with others? How would you like to be spoken to like that? Or, how would you like being treated that particular way? Everyone has bad days, but the key to it is not to pass on that negativity to others. Take 5 minutes, clear your head and start off from a better place. Your day will improve and others will notice.ARTArticleA Mission Every Employer Has with Every EmployeeA Mission Every Employer Has with Every Employee Byr Dr. Bill Cottringer “The obscure takes a while to see, but the obvious even longer.” ~Anonymous. The above quote relates to a lesso I seem to have to keep relea ing and remembering from the first book I wrote several years ago—“You Can Have Your Cheese & Eat It Too.” The important lesson is in understanding how to do this by understanding the opening quote. Oddly, the solution to this challenging paradox is rather obvious, yet obvious things usually take longer to see than even more obscure ones.ARTArticleA New Year’s Resolution Worth ConsideringA New Year’s Resolution Worth Considering Byr Bill Cottringer Normally, I am not one for making or suggesting good New Year’s resolutions, maybe because I have seen too many short-lived ones dissolving after just a few weeks. However, I am going to make an exception to my own rule this year and make a resolution myself that I intend to keep. And, it might be a template you can use to make your own resolution which will undoubtedly be a lot easier to keep, than promising to lose 50 pounds, cutting out smoking and drinking altogether, or making your first million bucks. Here goes:ARTArticleA Precious Child Is BoThis article is about Christmas. You can fondly remember your favorite Christmas. Maybe it was the one when you received that toy that you were dying to get. Maybe it was the one when your grandma and aunt showed up, you haven’t seen them in a very long time. Or, maybe it was the one you received your first bicycle or your very own puppy.r ARTArticleA Second Chance at LifeYour body is a vessel for your soul. It has served you well. When we are called home, it doesn’t matter what our physical body looks like, it has served its purpose. All those vital organs have helped you stay alive. But what happens when you stop breathing, and those vital organs start to die? What happens next might help someone else stay alive. Your passion for life and considerate actions, might give someone else a second chance at life.ARTArticleA Simple TaskSometimes it is hard to envision other people’s limitations when you don’t have any yourself. A simple thing like tying your shoes, opening a can, or brushing your teeth can require so much effort. This not only applies to lost limbs but different diseases such as Cerebral Palsy and Parkinson’s disease. When I see someone who is disabled you think automatically they that person doesn’t want to be treated any different, but they may need your assistance. Although the disabled person strives for independence, I always ask them if they need assistance.ARTArticleA Strong WomanOur world is made up of many strong women. Everyone has their own definition of strength and what it entails, but I assure you, everyone has someone they know that can be put on this list. A strong woman could be you, your mother, aunt, cousin, wife, girlfriend, teacher, or the cashier at the department store.r ARTArticleA Time of Unrest Calls for RestIn response to the threats from N. Korea. When life gets crazy and the ground you’re standing on starts to feel shaky, it is time to rest. When you start to feel anxious, your body naturally wants to respond by taking action, don’t! Take a rest. If life starts to get blurry, take a rest. Take a deep breath, sit down; yes I said sit down, not run in this direction or that one. As you sit, think about everything that is going on outside your body. You can feel all the energy moving around. Now let’s get focused.ARTArticleA walk on the dark side...When I began blogging & sending newsletters I knew with the nature of my work with spirit that it would probably mean publishing some very personal & maybe sometimes "taboo" material. However, those that know me would describe me as a very open person who loves to talk about how her adventures with spirit, so surely that wouldn't be a problem? Well. Sharing with faces you know is one thing, sharing with faces you don't is quite another, although, perhaps I have been given the job of publishing these matters so openly because of my open nature.ARTArticleA Walk with YouDuring your lifetime friends will turn into acquaintances, lovers will become memories and ex’s will become strangers. The hardest times of your life will become your greatest lessons. Your lessons are your stories to be heard by others, so they will learn that they do not walk alone.ARTArticleA Window Left Open for ForgivenessSometimes, when you hear devastating news about someone you love, you know what you feel in your heart, but the right words don’t come forth or they just don’t sound right or the wrong words are spoken. If this happens, don’t despair. It is not a relationship that is now lost. Look at it as if a window had been left open for love, compassion and forgiveness to enter.r ARTArticleA Wish for YouI wish you love, peace and joy. I want to throw in some strength, comfort, and warmth to help you on your journey through life. I also wish you tende ess and hugs, when life gets cold and your struggles get rough. I wish you a trinket box full of all your fondest memories, to call upon when you need someone close. I would also like to give you the world’s biggest hug, so you have one during your joys and pain. Through all your triumphs and heartaches, just know that it is there. I wish for you, patience when you need it the most.r ARTArticleAbundanceWhen you give to others your gift is abundance. Giving doesn’t always mean in the monetary from. When you donate anything of yourself, you are giving. By helping someone else you are making their life easier and it makes the heart and soul feel good.ARTArticleACCEPT ADVERSITY, BOUNCE BACK & GET GOINGACCEPT ADVERSITY, BOUNCE BACK & GET GOING Byr Bill Cottringer “All the adversity I've had in my life, all my troubles and obstacles, have strengthened me... You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.”rn~Walt Disney. Life is often riddled with problems, obstacles and challenges which make it seem like one big test. The test is how you approach these adversities to develop the character you need to overcome them and end up at the finish line. This is your true legacy that nobody can deny you but yourself.ARTArticleAccidental Millionaire – the Next ChapterIt was a room filled with about 300 networking engineers. True geeks, that’s for sure. I was there in the room to deliver a training to these high-level engineers about a subject they all loved – TCP/IP. As the training went on, I discussed protocol, troubleshooting, hacking (oh excuse me, I meant to say “breaking down patterns to achieve entry into a network”) ARP, RARP, PING and a hundred other protocols. We talked hexadecimal and binary numbering systems, packet loss and router tables.ARTArticleAddiction to “Perfection” – Women and body imageEvery woman has done it. Uttered those words that undermine the image we have of ourselves and our bodies. I’m too fat. I hate the way I look. If only I my breasts were larger, or I were taller, shorter, had longer legs, had curly hair, straight hair, a smaller nose, bigger muscles …and the list goes on and on. Do any of these statements sound familiar? If so, you are not alone. In our society, thin figures, youth, and fitness are considered to be more valuable. But throughout history, most societies valued fat bodies and fat diets. The fat people were rich, the thin were poor.ARTArticleAffiliate Marketing . . . Truth, Untruth and Outright LiesWhat is Affiliate Marketing? Basically it’s marketing a merchant’s product for a commission. There are so many scams out there; how do you separate the wheat from the chafe? 7 Truths of Affiliate Marketing: 1. Low start up cost; but there are some costs. 2. You don’t need your own product. That’s true. However, you might want to work toward creating your own while you market other peoples’ products. 3. You can promote other peoples products. That’s true. There are thousands of affiliate programs to choose from.ARTArticleAffirmations Will Take You Where You Decide You Want To GoConfidence is an inside job. You've got to have confidence to achieve anything. And by the way, confidence makes you feel powerful yourself, but that message is communicated to others, too. Confidence is the greatest trait of a leader. Confidence makes people popular; confidence makes others want to help. On the other hand, when there's a lack of self confidence—well, who wants to follow a leader like that? Who wants to help someone when they're not even sure that they'll follow through? Confidence. So how do you get it? We talk about meditation, which is a focus thing.
