I love surfing the net, and on one of my many many journeys though the online world I came across a video called “I Am The World”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXmmxMQSleo
It’s the first installment of the “I Am The World” Movement, which is an inspirational music video/documentary aimed at promoting peace around the world.
Remember to shout “I Am The World” as loud as possible after watching the video!
Enjoy,
Dwayne

To all you Inspiring People!
I very rarely read newspapers, try to avoid the view of the world from the media however today I was waiting to a client and there was a copy of THE TIMES in the coffee table so I glanced through…….
I found this article ………… a SCHOOL in Kent is having lessons in Meditation, focusing on improving attention and concentration. I have attached the full article taken from THE TIMES! Certainly a step in the right direction for our Young People and certainly made me smile so I am delighted to share it with you!

After posting the Mitchell & Webb video on How NOT To Network on my blog, I watched a few more clips of them on YouTube.
I like this video which is a role reversal on vegetarians and meat eaters.

My questions is which side are you on? LOL!
Enjoy!

I was looking through the websites of all the experts I’ve interviewed for my expert interview series YES Interviews (Wow said interviews alot there, lol).
And on Rob Brown’s website I found this and had to share it.
—
Just came across this great comedy clip via top networker Will Kintish which illustrates beautifully how some people get it all wrong when they’re networking.
The good news is, you reap what you sow! Have a look at this 2 min clip and you’ll see what I mean!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGCMtk695Cg
Three quick tips to help you avoid messing up the complex brain surgery that is networking!
- Make ‘what do you do?’ your second or third question rather than your opening. It pigeon-holes or categorizes people too quickly and can close down rather than open opportunities. It’s better to ask some general small talk questions before requesting their elevator pitch.
- Remember it’s not what they do, it’s who they know. Just because someone isn’t your target market, doesn’t mean they don’t know your target market. By exploring what other events they go to, where their network is strong, what kind of clients they deal with and who they have around them, you begin to see them as a door that’s opening rather than one that is closing.
- Use job titles only if you want to soothe your ego. People are actually more interested in what you do than who you are. It might sound grand being a consultant, lawyer or accountant, but it’s the difference you make that counts.
Good networking is not rocket science, but it does take a little thought! If you could use some help with doubling your revenue through better networking and referral marketing, leave a comment!
And this is where I network with great people. www.iBusinessMastermind.com

Dwayne

Jim Rohn once said something about borrowing quotes as you could stay up all night trying to think of a good one.
So I’d like to share a message from a friend Vishal about Jim passing.
—
I’m sure that by now most if not all of you have heard the news of Jim Rohn leaving the physical world. All of us in the world of self development someway owe a lot to this amazing soul. He has taught us and/or our teachers the fundamental lessons that aid us and guide us into greatness.
I remember the first time I heard Jim Rohn speak, I was laughing so hard, he had knowledge, wit, purpose, he had it all. And over the years I would always check back in with him and again on Friday while I was working I had Jim on in the background and I just loved his work and his humour!
The news of his passing was a shock to me and I don’t really know what to say or feel right now. All I know is that I am thankful for his work, his time, and his soul. He has helped in making the world a better place. Truly one of gods angels.
Jim had many amazing quotes that I have e-mailed you all over time so today I would like to leave you with this one:
“Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present” – Jim Rohn
We love you Jim and thank you for everything you have contributed and your work will continue to touch lives for years to come.

RIP Jim

This is Michael Jordan path from being a ‘Legend’
Leg-end
Function: noun
1 : an individual of greatness that inspires popularly regarded stories from the past.
then to become ‘Legendary’
Leg-end-ary
Function: adjective
1 : when one’s highlights are replayed over and over
If you plan to be great at what you do then model the legends and the legendary.
