[Video] Present like Steve Jobs

If you appear unsure, you’ll be seen as unsure. Walk into a room with confidence.

I’ve been to so many networking events, and met many interesting people.

What separates the best, from the rest, is how you convey yourself. Your body language determines how well you are perceived. If you cross your arms, you appear to me as being close minded. Watch how Steve Jobs, just youtube it.

Then watch this video:

It takes a lot of practice to be good at something, and networking and interviews are no different. Next time you ask yourself why you didn’t get that job, or couldn’t connect well with that key person. Ask yourself how you could do it better next time, write it down, and make a conscious effort to improve yourself. Greatness comes from consistent actions to improving yourself first.

And like Jeffery Gitomer says: “If you don’t understand yourself first, how can you hope to understand anybody else?”

[Video] Rare Interview with Tony Robbins on Secret of life

Very insightful interview with Tony Robbins on “The Hour”

Life not easy, but nothing in life is permanent, no problem is permanent, nothing is so pervasive that you can’t change it. ~ Tony Robbins

Have certainty before you do anything, be in the zone

Most people have so much breadth, but no depth in their life

When your life doesn’t match your expectations, you are going to feel crappy

If your not happy where you are, what is it all for?

[Video] The best book you will ever read

Speech from the late Napoleon Hill, who has written one of the best known books known to man: Think and Grow Rich.

http://www.amazon.ca/Think-Grow-Rich-Original-Classic/dp/1906465592/ref=tmm_hrd_title_0/178-7799318-4571621

Key Points from his speech:

–          Take power of your mind and direct it to whatever ends you may desire

–          What your mind feeds upon is what your mind attracts to you

–          Have definite of purpose

–          Know what precisely you want in life

2 Envelope Concept

Everyone comes to earth with the equivalent of two envelopes:

–          Riches you may possess  if you take possession of your own mind and direct it to ends of your own choice

  • Sound health
  • Peace of mind
  • A labor of love of your own choice
  • Freedom from fear and worry
  • Positive mental attitude
  • Material riches of your own choice and quantity

–          Penalties if you neglect to take possession of your mind and direct it

  • Ill health
  • Fear and worry
  • Indecision and doubt
  • Frustration and discouragement throughout life
  • Poverty
  • Flock of evils consisting of: Envy, jealously, superstition, greed, anger, hatred

It has always been your choice which envelope you choose.

Action Items

Procure a neat notebook:

–          On page 1 – Clear description of your idea of success

–          On page 2 – Clear statement of what you intend to give in return

Repeat at least 12 times daily

And end with the following statement:

Oh great providence, I ask not what of more riches, but more wisdom, and use wisely the riches I received at birth, to whatever ends I desire.

[Video] Attitude of Success

Got this video link from my friend Daniel, a genius programmer. You can check out his blog here: odotto.tumblr.com

“Love the attitude of the below video. Here are some of the key bullets:

When you want to succeed as much as you want to breath, then you’ll be successful

Most of you want success, but you don’t want it bad enough

If you are going to be successful, you have to give up sleep

You got to want to be successful so bad that you focus so hard you forget to eat

You’ll be successful when you don’t need me to give you a dime, then you’ll be successful”

It’s my belief that dedication will always beat talent. So go out and find what you are passionate about, because only then will you have the courage to dedicate the time to trying to achieve it, and only then will you be able to dedicate the time and energy to do what it is you need to do to achieve it.
