The amount of CVs I have seen with spelling mistakes and sometimes just poor presentation is extremely high. Notes: It seems obvious, but do not deliver the finished product until you receive payment. I don’t feel a CV will get you a job – but it will get you an interview.

As of January 2009 I started to actively promote the blog, becoming active (some say that I become even too active ) in social media outlets like Twitter , FaceBook and StumbleUpon. You gotta promote your blog, otherwise you’ll never reach to your audience. Promotion is definitely key. Another huge mistake. I was so wrong.

When I am not present, I get hit. Wow, it’s hard to narrow it down to three. I think the biggest is that for me it’s a practice in self development, in a very physical and tangible way. When I am thinking or planning, I am not as effective. When my mindset is not positive or centered, I am also not very effective.

But you can also use your sidebars to promote events, products or services you own or you are part of. This would give me more flexibility in what I say and how I present the information. Usually, sidebars are very good for incentives. Another special case is what I call the “sales” pages. What do you think about this?

Your partner just had a promotion or a personal breakthrough and you’re supporting him. A picky manager who gives you more and more complex tasks without showing recognition or proposing you for a promotion, that’s a disempowering person. An empowering person would give you more chances for promotion, or recognition.

Entrepreneurs get a chance to present their business in front of some (very) big investors and those aforementioned investors get a glimpse of the local market. In short, it’s a place where local entrepreneurs can make a pitch about their business an ask for funding from the VC’s. It’s not a competition, meaning there is no prize to be won.

Present Yourself In A Way You Haven’t Before If you always present yourself to others in a serious way, and they are used to that by now, it would make a statement for you to try to start casually the next time you are with others, and maintain that during the rest of your conversation.

You will spend so little time assessing what’s actually going on with your life under the present circumstances, and you will automate your reactions at such a level, that you won’t live a life anymore. As Sandra Lee said, I think it’s all just a reminder to step back into the present. You will be like a puppet.

They say that you need to find affiliates to promote your work so that you don’t have to work as hard, which is also true. When you present yourself in a very confident manner about everything you people can almost feel it. It’s rather that increasingly we see it presented as a universal imperative.
