Beat Your Fear Of Rejection

23 Jan

In 2013 rejection should be a thing of the past.  If you are in sales, direct marketing, or even just want to get ahead- you need to conquer the fear of rejection.

A Few Awesome Rejection Quotes

“I take rejection as someone blowing a bugle in my ear to wake me up and get going, rather than retreat.” – Sylvester Stallone

“I was told to avoid the business all together because of the rejection. People would say to me, ‘Don’t you want to have a normal job and a normal family?’ I guess that would be good advice for some people, but I wanted to act.” – Jennifer Aniston

“A rejection is nothing more than a necessary step in the pursuit of success.” – Bo Bennett

“You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you’d experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it. “ – Taylor Swift

The trick to beating Rejection-  Active offense. 

In other words you have to manage fear of rejection by fighting it head on.  Every leader in every industry has fear.

No one wants to be rejected.  I hate rejection.  However you can’t close a recruit or a sale if your fear dominates.  Just run with it folks.

Secret: fight fear by using it.  Make it work for you.

Quick Cash Saving Tip

21 Jan

Even if this recession weren’t still deep we all need to save money. And every chance to keep a few pennies in our pocket is a blessing. And so in that vein I offer you a small and simple way to save money asap.

Buy Forever Stamps from the USPS Now.
On January 27th the price of these stamps will go up. So why not buy more now at the lower price? You will probably need a few stamps. So why not buy one book?
At less than 14 bucks its a win win to secure your needs ahead of time.
Consider it postage insurance.
Save folks.

Blackberry Tips For My Readers

19 Jan

Blackberry tips for simple use and freeing up memory on your Rim Smart phones.

Ok folks I re-upped and consolidated my blackberry posts so a lot of help is in one place for my readers. I’ve also written posts on blackberry, android, and apple that help manage accounts, find you great apps, and show great shortcuts and ways to optimize your smartphone. Hit the search and pick you poison.

These tips are simple and direct from RIM.

-Type *ld without the star. It will put today’s date.

-Type *lt without the star. It will put the exact, current time according to your phone.

-Type Myver* without the star. It will tell you what bb and os (operating system) you are currently running. It will look like this: 9900/7.0.0.576 (B2392).

-Type Mypin* without the star. It will type out your pin for sharing and or viewing.
It will look like this: pin:123456A.

-Hold both the Alt key and right aA key down and then hit the delete key. This will reset your phone. Essentially its a hard reboot akin to a battery pull but better in my opinion.

-Hold the same two keys, (the Alt key and right aA key) except no delete key.
Instead hit the h key for help desk window
Information.

-Hold Alt and type lglg.
This takes you to the event log. Now if this is your personal phone you don’t have to keep the log. Clear the event logs daily. You have no need of them and your blackberry will be noticeably different. Also hit the r key to refresh the event log as it may be volumes and volumes. Once you can’t see more to clear. Close out completely.

-Go to options, then security, than advanced security settings. In there you want to find Memory Cleaning. Do the clean now to remove data that isn’t needed. You can set it too delete on a schedule but I find that its timing never matches mine. So better yet-
Use the option to put its icon on your home screen and do it yourself. Daily.

-Want to type ALL CAPS? Hold the alt key and then hit the right aA key. This will let you WRITE LIKE THIS.

-Need to add a numerical sequence? Hold the alt key and hit the left aA key. (:-4 1-”” !2 (:2 324_”(
aka- this will be the result.

-Lastly in your messages folder hold the alt key and hit the p key. This will show you your phone calls in their entirety. If you need privacy delete this. If you want more free memory- delete this.

-Rather than looking at signal bars, you can change the coverage indicator to show ‘signal strength’ in digital (dBm) format. While at the home (icon) screen, hold down the ALT key while you type NMLL. The bars change to digital mode. A lower number is better, and anything between -90 to -50 dBm is good.
-To get the signal bars back, repeat the process: hold down the ALT key while you type NMLL.

So now you know your blackberry a little better. And it will run better as well.
Succeed my friends.

Scott Berkun's avatarWordPress.com News

As soon as a blogger publishes their first post, their first question is: Where’s all my traffic? Everyone assumes they’re the only one seeking attention, when in truth nearly everyone is. It takes time to build an audience and no one gets much traffic without putting in the effort.

Here at WordPress.com we want you to get more traffic, and we build features and services to help. It’s been awhile since we’ve told you about them, so here are our top recommendations:

  1. Update your About Page. One of the first things visitors to your site will want to know is something about who you are. If you don’t update your About page to include a short bio, and they find a generic page instead,  they’ll be disappointed. But if you briefly explain (two paragraphs is plenty) what the blog is about, and who you are, they’ll be more likely…

Free House Flipping Course

11 Jan

You read it right folks-
Zero Cost House Flipping Course

Every day fortunes in real estate are made all around the country.
There is money to be made in every corner of the country. A simple system is the easiest way and what everyone dreams of.
Well, look no further for the truth.

If you watch tv or search the net you will find about 100 courses that are all considered reasonably priced. I saw one by a guy who ran his own company and even had a tv show and he was only charging $200 for a 3 day seminar.

Let me save everyone $200. To flip houses you first need to become a realtor so that you’re not paying someone 6% every time you sell a house.
Makes sense right? 6% times 8 flips @ an average of $100,000 grand. Adds up quick folks.
Next you need money- and lots of it.
To get these funds you either need perfect credit, or a rich family member. No one will lend you money if you’ve never flipped before. Sad but true facts. Risk vs reward is the formula.
And finally, you need to be in a market in which real estate is very expensive and in which people value their time more than their money. Only then can you gain enough value in the flipping process to make any real money. Locations include NY, Boston, DC, LA, SanFran, etc. Certain states and even counties do not qualify. Real estate prices and the abundance of cheap labor make new construction too affordable in these areas.

Moral of the story:
Know your goal,
Know your area, aka your market,
And make sure you are set up right to make moves.
