WOMEN RULE!!!!!

Women. What an extraordinary group of people! We are so good at so many things. If you want to get something done, have a woman do it. We love a challenge. We love showing people we can accomplish so much. We also care deeply about others. We just can't help ourselves. It is part of who we are. We love helping people. We love making a difference. We love laughing and being a part. We love contributing. The bottom line is...WE LOVE LIFE.


We live in a time where people of all backgrounds have a chance to build a great team in business regardless of gender. However, it's not uncommon for women to hit a glass ceiling and never see any blue sky. When I was working as a flight attendant, early in my career, you would think I saw blue sky all the time. What I saw, unfortunately, was a system that was seniority based, not performance based, and I realized my options were limited. I made a decision then and there to become an entrepreneur. In ten short years, at World Financial Group, we have built a great team of thousands around the country using the timeless principles I am going to share with you in this book.

As Peggy Anderson said, "Great women are not considered so because of personal achievements, but for the effect their efforts have had on the lives of countless others. From daring feats of bravery to the understated ways of a compassionate heart, great women possess a common strength of character. Through their passion and persistence, they have advanced womanhood and the world."

I remember early on in my career, I was told by several people, "Don't hire any women. They have too many responsibilities. They have children and husbands and charities, etcetera. They will not be able to put in the time it takes to really make their business work."

I listened to that for a brief time and then I accidentally hired some women. I was ready for all the excuses, but I never heard any. I was also blown away by how much they could get done, and how they were performing better than everyone else in the office. I realized we had a secret weapon. You want your business to grow - HIRE MORE WOMEN!
There have been many "ceilings" in the past pertaining to women. A lot has changed in the last couple of years. Consider these facts based on reports by the U.S. Department of Labor and the Center for Women's Business Research in 2003:

Women-owned businesses are growing at twice the rate of all U.S. firms.

One in every 11 adult women owns a business.

Women entrepreneurs generate nearly $2.3 trillion in revenues to the U.S. economy.

More than 18 million workers are employed by a women business owner.

What does all this mean? WOMEN RULE!



 

How Your Life Matters

 
"Not long ago, I finally told the story of when, at the age of twenty-three, homeless and scared, I was given guidance in a most unusual fashion by an old man named Jones. What the old man told me did nothing less than change my life and my future. He said..."With a little perspective you can live a life of permanent purpose."

When I asked what he meant, the old man answered with a question. "Do you sometimes find yourself unconsciously judging your actions by level of importance?" I frowned a bit, not certain I understood. "For instance, "he continued, "the time you spend with friends is important, but the time you spend with family, is more important. You might rank an hour fishing as very important, thirty minutes visiting a sick friend in the hospital much more important than the fishing, and a sixty second conversation with a convenience store clerk as not very important at all."
I nodded my understanding and he returned to his initial point. "When you know that everything matters -that every move counts as much as any other -you will begin living a life of permanent purpose. A life of permanent purpose will make you a better parent, a better spouse, and a more valuable friend. Your productivity and financial success will soar to new heights while the old days of uncertainty, doubt, and depression fade into the past."
Of course, that conversation with Jones changed me. But even more, it became the guiding force that produced the kind of speaker and author I have become. You see, I understand fully that my very value as an author and speaker must ultimately be judged by the success you achieve. And as I consult with companies or speak to organizations and teams, I am keenly aware that much of my client's (your) ability to succeed beyond imagination depends upon my ability to prove this very concept!
When one lives a life of permanent purpose, sales figures soar, team chemistry thrives, and teenage decisions become wiser and more cautious. And these are just a few examples of what will happen...Simply put, when we understand that every action matters, every result of our actions immediately improves!"

Incidently, my mail box got this mail...nd i was just amazed and astonished....now you will feel whts so gr8 in this mail..its a typical phiolosophical, self help category mail....bt the thing which surprised me is last sunday i attended a workshop called ' Secret beyond the secret' by Dr. Pradeep Pawar.
The workshop was on similar lines....the most important thing which had been disscussed and implemented was 'EFT i.e Emotional Freedom Technique'
we all know that our thoughts and mind has immense power, we have heard whatever you think you are right etc etc. these statements sound good to hear but people like me who are left brain dominant ask for scientific proofs. In this workshop. i got to see that, and i started believing the same. but it doesnot mean that, each and every thought of us is being implemented and  transmitted to the universe. the thoughts which we pay attention and back them up with emotional, only those thoughts are being spread in the field.

EFT is based on the electrical systems in our body called the meridians. It is an emotional version of acupuncture except that needles are not used, where the release points are stimulated by tapping with the fingertips. We can think of the meridians like rivers along which the electricity in our body flows. This flow has been called many other names such as, chi, prana, life force, electromagnetic, electrical or just energy. EFT helps in restoring the energy flow to normal and that helps us feel emotionally and physically healthy.
The tapping on the acupuncture points on the meridian system releases the blockages that are created when a person thinks about or becomes involved in an emotionally disturbing circumstance. When this blockage is released, energy flow is restored and the emotions come into balance. When this happens, the person will react to the situation or memory in a rational way.The memory remains but the negative charge is gone.

EFT is based on new discoveries regarding the body's subtle energies. This technique has been described by some as one of the most important breakthroughs in the area of psychology in this century. EFT has been used successfully by physicians, therapists and even psychiatrists all over the world thousands of people benefiting from it.
