Put Your Feet Up to Help Catch ZZZZZ’s
It is sometimes hard to fall asleep with your mind
buzzing from all of the activities of the day – and
all that still has to be done. A great way to quiet
your mind and body is to lie on the floor with your
feet up on the seat of a chair or rested up against
a wall with your legs at a 90-degree angle to your
body. Elevating your feet higher than your head improves
your circulation and reduces tension and swelling in
your feet and legs. Calm your system by taking deep
breaths. Inhale as you count to six, allowing your
belly to expand out. On your exhale, pull your navel
back toward your spine and count to ten. Go directly
to bed after having your feet elevated for five to
ten minutes. (Do all of your teeth brushing, etc. before
putting your feet up.) Sweet dreams!

Book
of the Month Recommendation
“The Other 90%” by Robert K. Cooper
This book is filled with ways to focus and expand your
strengths and talents to capture the 90% of our potential
that most of us never use.
An
excerpt from “The Other 90%”…
“Each of us is gifted in a unique way.”
“Four
decades of global research on nearly
two million people proves that we cannot
do anything well just by setting our
minds to it, yet each of us can do one
or two things better than any other 100,000
people. Those things are our individual
talents. We each need to discover them,
develop them into strengths, and then
apply them as fully as we can.”
“When
you do the work you are best at, it flows.
Take a moment at the top of every hour
to ask: ‘How can I apply more of my best?’ Ask, ‘Is this the most exceptional work I can do, the very best effort I can make?
Am I drawing on the utmost of my capabilities?
Am I providing the greatest value per
minute of effort? Can I bypass, minimize
or delegate some of the upcoming tasks
that I have no talent or skill for or
that feel like drudgery? Do I notice
and reinforce the best in other people,
or am I staring at their blemishes and
weaknesses? Can I take on from others
more of what I’m best at and, in turn, ask them to lighten my load of the things I’m not great at or don’t love to do?’”

The
Power of Personalized Notes
Joe Girard, the World’s
Greatest Salesman (according to the Guinness Book of World Records) used the power of personalized mailings to his network of customers and contacts
to achieve his success. He sold over 13,000 individual
cars during the course of his fifteen-year selling
career. One of his selling strategies was to send a
mailing each month to each of his contacts, keeping
his name and information in front of any of them that
might need a new car or talked to someone that needed
a new car. (Read more about him in, “How to Sell Anything to Anybody” by Joe Girard.)
Do
the work at which you are best and let
Profits In Progress become part of your
team and speed your success. Our mission
is to maximize your client connections
through repeated and personalized mailings
-- helping you generate repeat, referral
and word-of-mouth sales. Our services
include individual, handwritten note
cards using our valet service, as well
as note card mailings to your entire
contact list – personalized with a message from you and your company. You can choose our professionally
designed note cards or we can customize
a note card or special offer card to
reflect your corporate branding and colors.
