Having Pride in American Products 2007-08-01 15:01:00 China is a big contention for the American economy and the American style of living. We have become so addicted to cheap Chinese products that few could imagine paying 50% more for the products built within the U.S. With the next eight year China will have a larger economy than the U.S. What most Americans don’t realize is that they are directly responsible for the loss in American jobs. The government has become a popular excuse for just about everything ranging from education to the economy. We, the citizens, refuse to look at our own actions and how these actions affect the future of our nation and the future of our children. In other words we often fail to see how we fit into the larger picture of our nation’s future viability. Thus we blame the government instead of the parents, blame the disorder instead of the criminal and blame the government instead of ourselves. We can hardly blame people for not seeing the bigger picture as the country has become larger, more diverse and ...

They may even begin to experience new levels of satisfaction in their lives.Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs helps to describe people’s basic needs and their immediate concerns as they move up the pyramid.

An Introduction to Motivational Speaking 2007-07-31 22:40:00 Everybody speaks. Some people speak and get elected president of the United States. Other people speak and armies of business people take to the streets, generating huge sums of money. Still others speak and people’s lives change. What makes for difference between those who speak and are received by a rapt audience, and those who merely fill the air with noise?Speaking clearly and effectively is a science and that science is called motivational speaking. For some it is more art than science but unlike art, true motivational speaking can be learned, can be taught effectively, and must be practiced. To begin with, the thought of getting up in front of a live audience and speaking about anything at all frightens most people to death.
