Set Out To Succeed
Author: TimeScape Productions Inc.
Tue, Mar 14, 2006
Set out to succeed
No one sets out to fail; most people seek success, not failure, yet almost every successful person has failed before succeeding.
The truth is that failure isnât always bad. It can humble you, teach you, and helps prepare you for success. Every set back you have, rejection you experience, and hardship you encounter will teach you something of value, and help you to appreciate success when you reach it.
Behind the story of every successful person is a story of a time when things were different. Everyone has struggles, challenges, and obstacles to overcome.
Abraham Lincoln failed numerous times; he was defeated and rejected, but it didnât stop him from running, and then becoming, one of Americaâs most recognized and respected presidents.
Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he successfully invented the light bulb. He never would have succeeded had he given up trying.
Joanne Rowling, creator of Harry Potter, was an unemployed single mother when she wrote her first manuscript. Today she is one of Brittanâs wealthiest women.
Walt Disney suffered financial problems and a nervous breakdown before achieving fame and fortune.
The truth is that everyone starts somewhere. The tough times you go through will help prepare you for the better times yet to come. Everything takes time, persistence, a game plan, a belief in oneself, and the right attitude.
Successful people donât fear failure; they view failure as a temporary setback, not a permanent position. Successful people donât give up; they believe they will succeed. They focus on possibilities and tend to quickly rebound after a set-back or problem.
Instead of fearing failure, you can anticipate it and learn from your mistakes.
Every time you fail, rest assured youâre one step closer to success. Donât be ashamed of failing; why not give yourself credit for trying? The only people whoâve never failed are those who have never tried.

Sex And The Office
Author: TimeScape Productions Inc.
Fri, Feb 03, 2006
Thinking of getting a Valentine for that cute guy or gal at work? Nice thought, but Sue Morem says not so fast. What's OK with your friends may not be appropriate with your co-workersâespecially with people of the opposite sex. But is it about the sex?
Written by Susan Morem, author of 101 Tips for Graduates, How to Gain the Professional Edge, Second Edition, and How to Get a Job and Keep It
(Sue) A man sees a woman struggling to put her coat on and gently helps her... then holds the door open for as they exit. They make eye contact and he holds his gaze. Sound romantic? But it's not a date. It's at the office. Is that appropriate? That's the topic of an email question that I'll answer next.
(Sue) When I first started writing my columnâŚquestion from gentlemen, didnât know how to act around women, so started avoiding women because so afraid. So my response â what are you so afraid of. Treat women with respect , treat everyone with respect, youâve got nothing to worry about. I was totally unprepared for the volume of mail and responses I had in response to that column. The women all wrote in and said right on, thatâs all we want, treat us equally, treat us with respect. And the men were furious with me, they were outraged. They said you donât know what youâre talking about, we do walk on egg shells. Weâre so afraid of lawsuits slapped on us for doing or saying the wrong thing and that even led to other columns, so I found very early on there are still challenges among men and women, especially men about heâs supposed to act around women at work.
(Demae) From the maleâs point of view, what they think is normal respectful conversation amongst each other a woman may take offensively. So they may think theyâre treating a woman equally. And in fact in their mind they are but just different gender understanding of how things worded or said or how they communicate to each other.
(Sue) Itâs true, but Both men and women have to realize that all the things that works outside the workplace donât work there. So it kind of goes back to this generic appropriateness in the office or work environment that we have to be respectful of where we are that certain jokes or comments may be offensive to other people where it may not in another situation.
(Demae) What about a man holding a door open for a woman in the workplaceâŚif want to be treated equally should a man not do that in the workplaceâŚlike they would on a date.
(Sue) Right, and the thing I always tell people (not dating women at work, not like open door, put on coat for her, pull out chair, etc. all of that nice and lovely to do if itâs easy to do that, if see them struggling, help them, if first at elevator and want to hold do itâŚ)my rule of thumb is donât do it because theyâre a woman or a man, do it because you would do it for anyone to be polite and nice.
(Demae) Right because you donât want to create a sterile environment where no one can do anything and everybodyâs walking like a robot fearful of everybody feeling offensive.
(Sue) Right and it doesnât have to be that way - itâs about treating people respectfully, nicely â treating everyone with respect. What Iâve notice is there are some men who are still very uncomfortable with women and so they avoid looking at the woman.,..or speak to the guys and not include the woman with their eyes or body language in a conversation. You know these are things that can be very offensive to a woman. So you have to be really no matter where your comfort level is, work on including everybody whether theyâre male or female.
(Demae) What about some things or mistakes some women make? I mean, Iâve seen situations where sheâs trying too hard to be like the man that she puts the man down or overrides him in some way.
(Sue) Women can try too hard and be very offensive also. Some women, I think the biggest mistake they make is they can act very female and helpless around men and they allow men to take this stronger stance and thatâs really giving their own power away so you really donât want to do that either.
(Sue) Okay Mike, I can see that that comment really got to you
(Demae) Mikeâs our engineer and his eyes lit up with this, so Iâm handing the Mike over to Mike.
(Mike) So I wanna know, Iâm damned if I do, Iâm damned when if Iâm looking at a woman, correct?
(Sue) Well, I get where youâre coming from because there are ways you can look at a woman that will put her over â if youâre looking up or down or looking in the wrong place. You can look at her, but just look at her the way you do at men. When you look at men donât you just look at their face when you have a conversationâŚ(Demae chimes in w/chuckle) That seems kind of hard for some men, Iâm sure (Sue, chuckling) You think thatâs too hard
(Demae) I donât know. Itâs worse to not look at a woman than to look at her. But itâs worse to look at her chest than it is to look at her face.
(Mike) It always depends on how theyâre dressed too. Some women are dressed to invite you to look at certain parts of their body.
(Sue) You are so right. I couldnât agree with you more. The woman who has the⌠cleavage hanging out or the bra that shows every little something, I get that, itâs hard to avoid that, yeah so look! (All Laugh) She wants you to. So thatâs a whole other segment in our other podcast for women about the image donâts that you need to stick to
(Demae) Sue, what do you think about women holding a door open for a man?
(Sue) I think itâs lovely. I think if sheâs there firstâŚif Iâm at door first, Iâll hold for man, men do it for meâŚI think itâs great, why shouldnât she? The whole point is treat everyone respectfully, business boundaries, conversational boundaries, physical boundaries and respect those male or female. You donât have to overfocus on anyone because of the sex that they are.
(Demae) And the bottom line is everyone should just be focused on their work.
(Sue) Well, itâs true. But we canât ignore the people and the relationship aspect of work either. And thatâs what makes it so tricky. Because we do get involved with people. And we have fun. We go out for happy hour afterwards and we get casual and cozy and fun and itâs very natural for people to get comfortable with each other and act in ways that maybe arenât in ways, quote/unquote, professional.
(Sue) And I think the wrap up here basically is that it isnât about the sex. Period.
(Demae) Donât say period. (Lots of laughter)

Quitting On A Whim
Author: TimeScape Productions Inc.
Fri, Feb 03, 2006
Quitting on a whim can be a big mistake
Written by Susan Morem, author of 101 Tips for Graduates, How to Gain the Professional Edge, Second Edition, and How to Get a Job and Keep It
We all have good days and bad days, and days we struggle to get through. Most of endure the bad and relish the good, but for some, it takes only one bad thing to happen for them to say âEnough--Iâm out of here!â In the heat of the moment, quitting may seem like the key to survival, however, there are other options to consider. Quitting on a whim can be a mistake.
1. When you quit on a whim you are responding to emotion, not logic. Perhaps your boss made a demeaning comment; maybe someone else got the promotion you wanted--or you might be upset because you were reprimanded for something you didnât do. You are justified in being upset and you should react to your emotion, but you shouldnât allow your emotions to replace reason.
2. When you quit on a whim, you create an uncertain future for yourself. Youâve had it, so you quit. You tell yourself you are glad to be out of there, and you may feel relieved at first, but before you quit think about how you will feel the next day, week, or month when you are sitting home without a job and without a paycheck. Unless you have a back up plan and know what you will do if you quit and how you will survive financially, you may be better off staying until you can be more certain about your future.
3. When you quit on a whim, you lose valuable contacts. You might have walked out to prove a point to someone who irked you or in response to something that occurred, but when you walk out that door, youâre walking out on everyone else whether you intend to or not. The friends and coworkers you left behind are still a part of the organization you ditched. Once you leave you will become the outsider, and although you might be able to retain a few contacts, youâll bound to lose more than you gain. And youâd better start thinking about what you will tell perspective employers when they ask why (or how) you left.
4. When you quit on a whim, you lose your dignity. When your anger and emotion replace your self control, you lose more than you gain. You lose your self respect and the respect of others.
5. When you quit on a whim, you give up the chance of working things out. Problems are inevitable; you can run away from your problems or face them and resolve them. Do you want to be known as a quitter or someone who easily gives up? Because when you quit on a whim, thatâs how you will be remembered.
6. When you quit on a whim, you are not giving yourself the time you need to make such an important decision. You need time to think; you might need time away, so take the time you need to make the decision that is best for you. When you give yourself time to think through what has happened and how to respond, you will arrive at a well thought out solution with less chance for regret.
7. When you quit on a whim, you only hurt yourself. You may think you are hurting your organization or the person(s) you are upset with, but you are only hurting yourself. Everyone else will still have a job to go to and will be together as they wonder what on earth happened to you! You will be alone, you will be the outcast, and you will be with out a job. The suffering you inflict on yourself will be far greater than any suffering you inflict on others.
If something happens and youâre feeling as if the only thing to do is to quit, take a time out. Quitting may be tempting, but before you walk out that door think about the long term effects your actions will have.
Address problems when they arise, speak up when you feel youâve been wronged, and strive to resolve problems. But before you quit, think twice because it quitting on a whim can be a big mistake.

Trust Your Vibes At Work
Author: TimeScape Productions Inc.
Thu, Jan 12, 2006
[Sue] Do you follow your gut feelings? If not, it could be hindering your success. In fact, one of the tips in my book, â101 Tips For Graduatesâ, is to trust your instincts. How can you make your intuition work for you? Sonia Choquette , sixth-sensory and intuition guide and author of âTrusting your vibes at workâ is here to teach us how to go with our guts.
[Sue] Iâd kind of like to know how you would define intuition.
[Sonia] Well, intuition is a hard-wired fundamental part of human consciousness. Actually sciences discovered that there are neuropath ways in the brain and the heart and the gut that pick up energy pick up information other than the five senses and this faculty when engaged really improves the quality of your life because it makes you a better informed person.
[Sue] And so, the question that I have is how does a person begin to pay more attention and know the difference between what is the intuition and what their thoughts are?
[Sonia] I believe the physical alert comes first, thought comes second.
[Sonia] You might get, the first indication is a gut feeling, a little anxiety in the heart, a lump in the throat, hair on the back of your neck and arms stand up, so thereâs definitely a physical alert to intuition
[Sonia] Feeling comes first, thought comes second.
[Sue]-okay
(Sonia) Then once the feeling nature responds, then the thought accepts, so my experience is that most people are very accurately intuitive but itâs what they choose to do with it that is the important thing  . So you get the thoughtâŚfor example, I had a client yesterday, a woman who is operating a very high-power interior design firm studio here in Chicago, she has 50 employees  . And she was interviewing someone who came to be the office manager - high recommendation, couldnât have been presentedâŚÂ  but as she was speaking to her she had just a bad feeling in her gut. She ignored it.   Because she was overridden by what everyone was saying and an urgency, so she hired the woman and it was a complete disaster.    She was not competent in creating a good consensus and a cooperative feeling.   Her management style caused many people to quit and all that was ! running beautifully, fell apart.  Â
[Sue] So why do you think so many people donât listen to that feeling, that intuition? Â
[Sonia] I think itâs because theyâve not been truly culturally encouraged to do so. Â
[Sue] Well, and that leads me to my next question, because most workplace environments donât really culturally, really donât have that culture either. Â
[Sonia] There was an interview with Harvard Business Review that I saw in a book, 100 Top CEOs were interviewed and asked what they attributed their success to. And all 100 said that it was their gut feeling , however all 100 said that they kept that secret. So, hereâs the key - leaders in business definitely follow their vibes. Managers and worker bees tend not to    to their detriment The decision makers, absolutely, the ones who are the entrepreneurs, the business leaders, the ones who are the top of their game are intuitively oriented. Â
[Sue]-so why do you think..
[Sonia] what we want to do is get the ones in the middle. Â
[Sue]- right. And why arenât they? Why do you think theyre less willing and arenât doing it as much?)Â Â Â
[Sonia] I think theyâre afraid because with intuition comes more responsibility! .   I think that, and what I recommend in âTrust Your Vibes at Workâ is set an atmosphere that will invite your intuition in and then ease it into the workplace so itâs never an either or.    So, you say, âwell hereâs what my research says, hereâs what my business sense say and hereâs what my gut saysâ.   Letâs just take it all into consideration.  Â
[Sue] You said the leaders are the ones who use it, the worker bees...
[Sonia] - comfortably
(Sue) more comfortably. But, is that because of the risk involved sometimesâŚÂ      Â
[Sonia] Perceived risk.
[Sue] - perceived risk
(Sonia) Yeah, so what I wrote in âTrust your Vibes at Workâ is to take the perceived risk and lower it so that no matter what your job is, you run it like a leader.      And when you run your job like a leader, you will succeed.    No matter what your job. Not a bully, not a renegade, but like youâre really taking full pride and ownership that this is my job. Intuition doesnât eliminate, um, the working steps you have to do; but you know what it does do? Eliminate waste. Following your gut feeling eliminates waste. Waste of time. And helps you be more efficient in making the best of your opportunities and really, you know.   But it is a fire quality. In other words, you have to have a little courage.   Â
[Sue] So, kind of bottom line advice for people who are just grasping this concept would be what?  Â
[Sonia] Iâd say pay attention to our vibes and voice them when you get them.    Sound them out, in the car, write them down.    Put âem out there. Â
[Sue] Why do you have to put it out there?
[Sonia] The reason you have to put it out there is because 90% of the human race are members of, what I call, the wouldâve, shouldâve, couldâve club. We get the vibe, but unless we express it, the tendency is to ignore it. Not act on it, not pay attention to it, not give it importance. The minute you put a vibe out there, you have a chance to have a different response. And it feels so right that you really have a much stronger possibility of integrating this information in a way that helps you.
Donât set it up that your intuition competes with your mind; have it sit side by side and they can be complementary. So my head says fill in the blank. And now my vibes say, or your heart says, which is where your vibes originate, fill in the blanks. And then you just let them sit side by side and let yourself hear and review them together; often the case is a bit of both.  Â
[Sue] You call yourself a sixth-sensory.
[Sonia]-yup
[Sue] So are you more advanced at this then the average person?
[Sonia] I - I -I; thereâs a lot of us out here; Iâm certainly not exclusive. I think we are all hard-wired to be sixth-sensory; we are biologically designed to be more sixth-sensory.
[Sue]- men and women alike?
[Sonia] Men and women alike.
[Sue]-so are there just as many men â
[Sonia] âŚitâs just a matter of focus, choice and practice to activate the sixth sense.
[Sue] So, I mean, it seems that women tend to talk more about intuition. Are men more..
[Sonia] Men tend to act more on it. I think women talk about it and get insecure; and I think men donât talk about it a lot, but push to shove, they go with their gut more than not. I really see that as something very consistent.
[Sue] And do they know what theyâre doing; are they getting those feelings?
[Sonia] They just call it my gut. You know, like a guyâs just gotta do what heâs gotta do. Put it out there and act on it is when itâll start changing your life. If you do it in little ways first, and then itâll grow your confidence in the bigger decisions.
[Sue]-right
(Sonia) You know, ease into this. Hereâs the exciting thing - you get instant results because it is natural You donât have to trust me. You actually will be able to come to trust your own vibes.
[Sue] Well, on that note,I thank you so much for your time - very interesting information.
[Sonia] Thank you.

Surviving the Office Holiday Party
Author: TimeScape Productions Inc.
Wed, Dec 07, 2005
If your idea of a festive holiday party is one in which you drink heavily, cozy up to your boss and carry on intimate conversation, you might need to change your ideas. If youâre looking forward to a little dirty dancing or the chance of winning the title of best karaoke singer at the company party this year, you probably wonât. Go ahead and have a good time, but you might want to tone down your behavior a bit.
Whether youâre at the company picnic, the holiday party, a convention, or celebrating someoneâs retirement or promotion during happy hour, you have the opportunity to either strengthen or weaken your relationship with others. Act as if your behavior is being observed every minute, because it is.
If you wonder if your attendance matters, it does. You might not be required to attend, but your absence will be noted. When you are a âno show,â you show you are ânot interested.â This does not help you look like a committed team player or caring coworker.
If you canât decide what to wear, decide to play it safe. If it isnât a company picnic, donât even consider wearing jeans, tank tops, or shorts. If it isnât a costume party, donât wear anything so shocking or unusual that your clothing is the topic of conversation. If it isnât a black tie formal affair, donât wear full-length, slinky, or sequined dresses or a tuxedo. And if it isnât a swimming party (which most business events are not), donât bare your midriff, your buttocks, or breasts.
If youâre planning on arriving âfashionablyâ late, make another plan. Late is late. There is nothing fashionable about it.
If alcohol is served, think before you drink. If you get âwasted,â youâve wasted a valuable opportunity to demonstrate your self-control. You donât have to apologize for not drinking, but you will have to apologize if you get drunk and do something foolish.
If you want to stand out and be noticed, get up and move around. You are at a social event; socialize. Donât huddle in a bunch with your work buddies; get up and move around. People canât see you, let alone notice you, when youâre sitting in the corner.
If you see people you do not know, get to know them. This is an ideal time for you to introduce yourself to those you donât ordinarily see or get to talk to, including company executives.
If youâve got a lot to gripe about, keep it to yourself. Celebrations are meant to be celebrated. Try to keep your conversations light and upbeat.
If youâre not sure if you should bring a guest, donât. Just because youâre invited to bring a guest doesnât mean you have to. You might feel more at ease if you donât have someone else to look after or worry about.
If you think you are ready for love, think again. No matter how hot that guy or gal from accounting is, this isnât the time or place for you to do something about it.
If you think you can slip away and no one will know you are gone, you are wrong. Itâs just as easy to keep track of those who stay as it is to remember who left early or didnât say good bye.
