"KC: I am so glad I referred you to my
business client. He's the boss of a large
company and on the outside he appeared
successful, but really he was a mess.
Disorganized, a workaholic, out of balance,
never saw his family, very frustrated and angry
and quite unhappy with life. Thanks to your
honest assessment and laser coaching, he is so
much more balanced and focused. He also has more
time for sports and seeing his wife and kids and
he is a hell of alot happier now. Thanks for
helping him and making me look good!" J.G.
NY
"Hello KC, I enjoyed meeting with you. You
are a great coach-I know there are a lot of
things that I need to work on. I will take your
advice. I guess I needed a big push-ha ha ha.
Take care and thank you for caring!" Diane
"Wow...thank you so much for all the PR tips!
What a packed session; I am looking forward to
implementing them very soon. Thanks again, KC".
R.B. - ID
"KC: Loved your new office. Cheerful, very
healing space. It's magnetic...people are drawn
to it, like your personality. Very nice!"

A Moment of Suspicious Recommendation Letters
For Bad Employees
|
For the chronically absent:
"A man like him is hard to find." "It seemed
his career was just taking off."
For the office drunk:
"I feel his real talent is wasted here." "We
generally found him loaded with work to do."
For an employee with no ambition:
"He could not care less about the number of
hours he had to put in."
"You would indeed be fortunate to get this
person to work for you."
"He consistently achieves the standards he sets
for himself."
For an employee who is so unproductive that the
job is better left unfilled:
"I can assure you that no person would be
better for the job."
For an employee who is not worth further
consideration as a job candidate:
"I would urge you to waste no time in making
this candidate an offer of employment."
"All in all, I cannot say enough good things
about this candidate or recommend him too
highly." |
MONEY-SAVER OF THE MOMENT
|
 Saving money...maybe you are not a coupon
cutter, but consider calling about your phone,
cable tv, internet, insurance now...even if you
have done it before. Things change with the
companies, they often run specials, discounts or
better deals than they had when you first signed
up. Ask about bundles. I just saved my family
more than $1500 annually by doing just this!
Also don’t forget to ask when you sign up for
hotels, rental cards, products...whether it’s
AAA, AARP, local resident discount, whatever or
some other membership you can save from 10-50%
off! |
SLY SENIOR OF THE MOMENT
|
We went to breakfast at a restaurant where the
"seniors' special" was two eggs, bacon, hash
browns and toast for $1.99.
"Sounds good," my wife said. "But I
don't want the eggs."
"Then I'll have to charge you two dollars and
forty-nine cents because you're ordering a la
carte," the waitress warned her.
"You mean I'd have to pay for not taking the
eggs?" My wife asked incredulously. "I'll
take the special."
"How do you want your eggs?"
"Raw and in the shell," my wife replied.
She took the two eggs home. DON'T MESS WITH
SENIORS |
FREELANCING FOR THE MOMENT
|
|
Don’t underestimate the power of a gig. The news
reported someone making 100,000 a year. Check
out guru.com, elance.com, indeed, craigs list. I
have been getting calls for business and PR
consulting, writing and editing, so this stuff
really works. |
|
ENGINEER OF THE MOMENT
|
 An
engineer dies and reports to hell.
Pretty soon, the engineer gets dissatisfied with
the level of comfort in hell, and starts
designing and building improvements.
After a while, they've got air conditioning and
flush toilets and escalators, and the engineer
is a pretty popular guy.
One day God calls Satan up on the telephone and
says with a sneer, "So, how's it going down
there in hell?"
Satan replies, "Hey things are going great.
We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and
escalators, and there's no telling what this
engineer is going to come up with next."
God replies, "What??? You've got an engineer?
That's a mistake -- he should never have gotten
down there; send him up here."
Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer
on the staff, and I'm keeping him."
God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue."
Satan laughs uproariously and answers, "Yeah,
right. And just where are you going to get a
lawyer?" |

HEARTWARMING COMPANY OF THE MOMENT
|
 Wow! I just got back from an amazing
Sendoutcards convention…there was more than
3,000 distributors from all over the world
sharing in the positive message. The mission of
Send Out Cards is two fold: To never ignore a
prompting to spread kindness to others and tell
someone you love them, thank you, you appreciate
them, etc. 2. To provide a vehicle for financial
freedom. WOW! A positive company based on
personal development, laws of attraction,
setting goals, being focused, achieving your
dreams, goals, kindness, giving back,
self-empowerment and helping others; all awesome
principles that I believe in and share with
coaching clients. Can’t believe you can get rich
spreading kindness and sending beautiful cards,
but I met many people doing just that! Ya gotta
love it! It was enlightening, fun, inspiring and
we raised $30,000 for the Make A Wish
Foundation. When the two little kids came on
stage there wasn’t a dry eye in the place!
I am have weaved SOC into my company Happiness
Is… but there are a lot of folks doing this as a
part-time side business or full-time (of course
their definition of full-time is two days a
week..hahah!) If you want to learn more contact
me at (603) 642-7871 or go ahead and try it out
and send a free card go to www.sendoutcards.com/happykc.
You’ll have fun! |

LATE NIGHT VISITOR OF THE MOMENT
|
A
man and his wife are awakened at 3 o'clock in
the morning by a loud pounding on the door. The
man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken
stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is
asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the bleary eyed
husband, "it is 3 o'clock in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push,"
he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asks.
"No, I did not, it is 3 o'clock in the
morning and it is pouring out there!"
"Shame on you! You have a short memory,"
says his wife. "Remember about three months
ago when our car broke down and those two guys
pushed it to the side of the road? They helped
us; I think you should help him!"
The man grumbles, but throws some clothes on and
goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the night, "Hello, are you
still there?"
"Yes" comes back the answer.
 "Do you still need a push?" calls out the
husband.
"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the
dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
"Over here on the swing!" replies the
drunk. |

A Congressman was seated next to a little girl
on the airplane when he turned to her and said,
"Let's talk. I've heard that flights go
quicker if you strike up a conversation with
your fellow passenger."
The little girl, who had just opened her book,
closed it slowly and said to the total stranger,
"What would you like to talk about?"
"Oh, I don't know," said the congressman.
"How about global warming or universal health
care?" and he smiles smugly.
"OK," she said. "Those could be
interesting topics. But let me ask you a
question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all
eat the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes
little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat
patty, and a horse produces clumps of dried
grass. Why do you suppose that is?"
The legislator, visibly surprised by the little
girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says,
"Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little girl replies, "Do you
really feel qualified to discuss global warming
or universal health care when you don't know
crap?" |

The older we get, the fewer things seem worth
waiting in line for.
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go
back to youth, think of Algebra.
You know you are getting old when everything
either dries up or leaks.
Ahh, being young is beautiful, but being old is
comfortable. |
