"Wise and powerful guidelines that will help lead you to the life you deserve!"
Og Mandino, Bestselling Author
The Greatest Salesman in the World
|
|
Success doesn't
happen by accident. . . It's predictable!
| | In the "First Book of
Life Skills" you will learn:
- Success strategies that enlighten and empower.
- Valuable insights on developing close personal and business
relationships.
- Inspiring thoughts and powerful ideas about living life to
its fullest and being the best you can be.
- How to multiply your personal effectiveness by developing a
network that supports you and your goals.
- How to increase productivity, profitability and your
personal prosperity.
- How to find inspiration and motivation from within. . . not without.
- The value and the tremendous benefits of business
networking.
- How to be accountable for the choices you make and how to
accept responsibility for the consequences of your actions.
- How to acknowledge others for their contribution to you;
saying "Thank You" in special ways.
- . . . Plus more than 160 quips and quotes from successful
people that will motivate and inspire you to action!
The skills discussed in Life Skills were originally lessons about how to network effectively. The author, Larry James, used them in his speeches
on the subject of networking. As he traveled around the country, he realized that these skills applied to all areas of life, not just networking,
and were relevant to everyone, not just to networkers.
The book is based on the premise that a sales professional (anybody who networks for a living), or anyone interested in improving their quality
of life, succeeds only as they are able to better themselves and build strong personal and professional alliances.
No matter what your level of expertise, this book will deliver state-of-the-art techniques that you can immediately use to start building better relationships and
improving your alliances with your customers and friends.
Life skills really are common-sense guidelines written for people who want to be the best they can be. And they are for everyone -
whether you are in sales or management, a mother, a father, in school, out of school, a dropout, or a household executive! Basically, no
matter what or where you are in life, you will find that Life Skills can make a contribution to you personally and professionally.
NOTE: If you are involved in MLM, you must read this book!
| "This is a highly thought-provoking book that can help anyone determine the areas in their
lives which needs fine tuning and get moving on making those positive changes."
Tom Hopkins, Professional Speaker/Author, How to Master the Art of Selling |

"The First Book of LifeSkills" was Larry's first book. It was adapted from
his popular seminar, "Networking: Making the Right Connections." Larry James is an example of what
he speaks and writes about. On June 4, 1985, he founded "The Tulsa Business Connection" considered by many to be one
of the most successful business networking groups in Oklahoma. While living in Tulsa he assisted in the development
of 9 other networking groups. Larry has been called "America's Guru of Networking!"
Larry began selling Grit Newspapers when he was 10 years old. During his selling career, he has been a sales associate,
sales manager, sales trainer, consultant and coach to thousands of people.
| "Larry James has charted a terrific guide for personal and professional excellence. Easy to read and
simple to apply, any of us can find great value in the wisdom of his work."
Nido R. Qubein, Chairman, Creative Services, Inc. |

Chapter IV. . . Show Up!
Be places
that count! Get involved in groups that matter. Network anywhere and
everywhere.
Woody Allen once said that "Eighty percent of success is
showing up!" If your life is going to work, you must aspire to be places that
count. Go where opportunity is knocking. Where do the people who are making
it hang out? What meetings do they attend?
Some of the benefits
of showing up are: creating visibility, making new friends, contributing to
others, allowing others to make a contribution to you, networking, exchanging new
ideas, learning more about your business, learning more about other people's
businesses, sales opportunities. . . and the list goes on. Never be too
busy to show up!
