Greetings! Where
nutrition is concerned, I must confess that I am a "do as I say, not as
I do" person, and I'm not especially proud of that. I'm well informed
about nutrition but act in a less-than-informed manner.
I subscribe to John McDougall's newsletter. Dr. McDougall epitomizes
good health, but I must say, his natural regime is not an easy one, but it is one to which I aspire. McDougall's
latest newsletter is about the health of our two presidential
candidates, which you may find interesting.
Our President's Personal Health Matters
All
voting US citizens will have to weigh the strengths and weaknesses of
John McCain and Barack Obama when voting November 4, 2008 to choose the
President of the United States. The personal health of these two
candidates will play a determining role in their performance over the
next four to eight years. This grueling job requires the highest level
of physical and mental fitness. A serious disability or the death of
our national leader during office would disrupt the function of our
government and require the vice-president to take office.
The
president's personal health will affect his (or her) policies and
decisions. Our views are biased by our own personal habits. More to the
point, people have a hard time seeing beyond their own dinner plates. A
president interested and knowledgeable about good diet and exercise
habits, not only incorporates this wisdom into his own life, but will
also share this understanding with others. The impact will be as far
reaching as national healthcare (health insurance), the USDA, the FDA,
the EPA, the diet of the military, the school lunch programs, the
pharmaceutical industry, the global impact of livestock on the
environment, health education, and your own personal doctors' practice
of medicine.

Interesting, eh?
Happy, Happy,

WHAT YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN THE SEMINAR BUSINESS
|
|
by Gail Cassidy

In past issues, I've listed some of the elements highly recommended for a person to succeed in the seminar business.
So far I've discussed KNOWLEDGE, ENTHUSIASM, ATTITUDE, and PASSION.
Another important element is having a SENSE OF PURPOSE.
Once you have determined your passion, what you are most interested in,
then you can concentrate on your purpose.
What precisely do you want to do with your passion?
Do you want to teach others, coach others, help others to do what you do?
How can you help others with what you know?
One of my favorite quotes is by Charles Englehardt. He said, "The time to be happy is now. The place to be happy is here, and the way to be happy is to help others." The significance of that statement is the last part-to help others.
By helping others with your passion, you will automatically reap the happiness everyone seeks.
Get a clear picture in your mind of your purpose, feel it as if you have already done what you intend to do with it, then go for it. Paul Karasik, author of How to Make It BIG in the Seminar Business said, "If you feel that presenting seminars is a way to help others and that it is, therefore, more of a calling than a job, your potential for achieving success is unlimited."
By the way, Paul Karaski's book is one of the best, most detailed book available to help you get started in the seminar business.
Next week we'll talk about Risk Taking and People Skills.

If you refuse to change your job (if you don't like it), the only sensible thing you can do is practice loving it every day.
