MAIL OF THE MOMENT

"Dear KC, I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you during our coaching session. Your energy is completely inspiring. Thank you for looking at my business and myself honestly and sharing your opinions and insights with me. Very helpful!! I have been very busy implementing many of the pieces we spoke about. When the fear begins to rise up, I immediately turn to my tool box and become active in making a positive and powerful shift.

I thank you from the wholeness of my being for helping me see how I can make my business far more prosperous than it ever has been. I know you recognize my mission for spreading more light and love in the world. It is my soul's craving! Thank you for helping me fulfill this in a beautiful way."


Om Shanti (Peace), A. F. Colorado

LOVE OF THE MOMENT
LESSONS OF THE MOMENT
A young man hired by a supermarket reported for his first day of work. The manager greeted him with a warm handshake and a smile, gave him a broom and said, "Your first job will be to sweep out the store."
"But I'm a college graduate," the young man replied indignantly.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that," said the manager. "Here, give me the broom - I'll show you how."
FUNNY WEBSITE OF THE MOMENT
Just in case you need a good belly laugh, go to www.Whenparentstext.com. It's hysterical! :) Kim Peck
NETWORKING TIPS OF THE MOMENT
Heading out to a Chamber of Commerce mixer, BNI meeting or another networking event in your community? Clients often ask for assistance with how to “work the room, network successfully, overcoming their shyness or making the business hour more productive. Here are a few quick tips I’ve written just for you!

Attracting the people you want:

  • Be Approachable! Smile and make eye contact! People will interact with those who are approachable and friendly. Don’t carry too much (juggling a purse, notebook, brochures, plate full of munchies or wine glass?) Put it down so you can offer a firm handshake to someone new. It is a fact that people do business with those they like, respect and trust. This is their first impression of you as a professional; make it a positive one.
  • Be Curious! Ask about them! Asking questions about the other person will engage them and give them a warm feeling about you. It will show you care and are interested and stand out from those just talking about themselves. You can learn a lot about them in a short time.
  • Be a Resource !Listen to their problems and what causes them stress. Then you can be the one to offer a solution, fill their need. They will be forever grateful and know they will remember you as a knowledgeable, positive resource.

Attracting the opportunities you want:

  • Get Clear– Before you head to the meeting or event, clarify what it is you want and need and the type of opportunities you are looking for.
  • Ask For What You Need– If it feels right, don’t hesitate to speak up and weave your goals/ your wishes into the conversation. You just never know who knows who.
  • Listen! By incorporating the above tips listed in the first paragraph, you will find out what they are struggling with and you will be the one to fill that need.
  • Be Open-minded– Be creative, innovative and stay open to new people, new collaborations, new ideas. Remember the connections you make are about long-term relationship building. View this networking event as planting seeds…you never know which person you chat with that night will someday blossom into a great business relationship or which opportunity you learned about will one day grow into something incredible!
DISAGREEMENT OF THE MOMENT
PRESENTATIONS OF THE MOMENT
Remember our staff team offers seminars, workshops, speeches, retreats and presentations to groups and companies around the world. From customer service training, business & PR tools, stress reduction, fun laughter/humor programs, staff training, employee morale, creativity, you name it...give KC a call about your next meeting or conference. Here's some feedback from one of her seminars last month:

"I just wanted to let you know what a great time Dottie had at the Administrative Assistant’s program you put on. Dottie came back with the biggest smile I have seen on her face for a while. What a great job and she continues to talk about what a great time she had. Thanks to all who put this together." Nancy - Human Resources Dept - County Office, NH

"I just wanted to thank you for the awesome administrative asst’s day today. It was so much fun and I got a lot out of it." - Dorothy

"That was awesome! One of the best so far in my opinion. I enjoyed it very much." Di
PUN OF THE MOMENT
The optician fell into the lens grinding machine and made a spectacle of himself.
UNCERTAIN MARRIAGE OF THE MOMENT
While attending a marriage seminar on communication, Tom and his wife Peg listened to the instructor declare, "It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other." He addressed the men, "Can you describe your wife's favorite flower?" Tom leaned over, touched his wife's arm gently and whispered, "Pillsbury All-Purpose, isn't it?"
The rest of the story is not pleasant.
COLLEGE CORRESPONDENCE OF THE MOMENT
After Graduating from High School, David moves away to study at the University. His first letter home reads: "Dear Father, University i$ really great. I am making lot$ of friend$ and $tudying very hard. With all my $tuff, I $imply ¢an't think of anything I need, $o if you would like, you can ju$t $end me a card, a$ I would love to hear from you. Love, Your $on."

After receiving this letter, the father immediately replies and sends this letter:
"Dear David, I kNOw that astroNOmy, ecoNOmics, and oceaNOgraphy are eNOugh to keep even an hoNOr student busy. Do NOt forget that the pursuit of kNOwledge is a NOble task, and you can never study eNOugh. Love, Dad"
