Job Interviews
I remember going on job interviews. I was good at job interviews. Job interviews made me feel awful. I’ve been asked whether I have stocking experience, or what makes me qualified to answer phone calls. We compete with others to see who can be happiest or most pleasant in customer service delivery.
Whether we are answering phones, driving a vehicle, filing papers, or teaching a lesson, a part of us resents what we are doing because somehow we know we can do more. We can be more than just a job. The most admired and lauded professions, a physician perhaps, comes to grip that he has become identified with routine duties and somehow mourns the lack of creativity as he compromises for the comfort of the familiar.
When an individual, hired by a company, promotes that company we call that a job. The company is created by individuals who try to brand that company and make it familiar for other people so they will use the company’s product or service.
When an individual markets a company he owns, many call it a scam. However, that is because their mindset is slightly off balance. Individuals are now marketing themselves and their own businesses because they have given up on being dependent on an employer. This shift in mindset is what leads to increase wealth, financial independence, and more time than many would know what to do with.
Financial wealth is not the goal, but a means to that goal. The journey leads to increasing self esteem and confidence as you push your boundaries and become bigger than you thought you were. You outgrow the word employee and vow never to go on a job interview again.
Social Media Profiles and Privacy
As social media continues to grow and connect users throughout the world you have the option of connecting your Facebook and Myspace profiles to Twitter, Flickr, Youtube, and of course your blog. Before long a friend of one of your friends can learn tons about you. There is no need to become famous because in the eyes of social media you’re practically a public figure.
For some of us savvy marketers who understand the power of Social Media and Web 2.0 privacy is not a concern when you begin various aspects of your life. The most intimate details of your life are best left off of Social Media sites of course, however, the more you gain notice in your niche whether it is in the blogosphere, network marketing, or at various groups at the top social media websites the more you are apt to lose privacy.
It was only last month that I filled out my profile on Facebook and began adding friends. Many of these friends I haven’t spoken since high school. Now I have a large network of friends that I know from elementary through high school, college, and even graduate school. I noticed that some Facebook friends have visited my blog. Part of me wanted to instinctively recoil and shut the curtain on my life closed because I currently have almost all of my Web 2.0 websites interlinked so it just takes one link to gain access to a lot about me. WIth all this information available, I became concerned about my lack of privacy and worried that I was sharing too much.
If you end up doing Network Marketing their are massive benefits to linking all of your social media. in Individuals looking for a business opportunity will have a good grasp on who you are and feel like they know you even before you talk one on one. This is an opportunity you cannot ignore because social media is the tool you can use to attract wealth and abundance into my life.
Next time you are worried about your privacy, ask yourself what is the underlying root of it all? Fear of being judged, fear of criticism, fear of succeeding financially and being different from your non entrepreneur friends? Typical affiliate marketers and bloggers may not see as many benefits for being as connected as a network marketer would but loyal readers and shoppers can be curious as to the person behind the IP address.
