Special Event:
How to Hire Yourself


Recent Career Event: Motivational Workshop

With Richard Everhardt Groves, Jr.


November 13, 2003


Sixty-five people attended a stimulating motivational workshop featured by the Event Planning committee.  Richard Everhardt Groves, Jr. talked about changing your perception in order to change your reality.  Have a positive conversation with yourself.  Negative conversations will prevent you from moving forward and causes you to doubt your greatness.  Spend more time praising yourself, saying good things about your accomplishments and efforts.  When negative thoughts invade you, put them aside as soon as you can.  Refuse to feel inadequate about what happened to you.  When things go wrong for you, focus on what went right for if you believe things will be hard for you, they will be.

When you are job hunting, put on your resume you are self-employed.  That will fill in the gap of time you are out there.  It will impress people

since starting your own business takes guts.  Even if your job is to find a job, you are self-employed.

Show a company how you can add value to their bottom line.   Avoid fitting into a mold.  Remember his story about bringing a special dinner  to his wife at the office when she was continually working late.  He had candles, good dishes and music besides home-cooked food.  He made all the husbands jealous because they didn’t think of getting off auto pilot and doing something different.

And, remember his story about Colonel Sanders who tried 1,000 times to sell his chicken recipe but never gave up.  Are you willing to sell yourself to 1,000 people?  Get out there!
