If only our prospects understood "Jungle Law."
What is the "Law of the Jungle?"
*** He who hesitates is ... lunch. ***
Yes, it is a jungle out there. Everyone is just trying to survive.
But what happens if your prospect says, "I want to think it over, I can't make up my mind, no use just jumping into things, I have to talk it over with my dog ..."
Well, your prospect becomes lunch!
Your prospect is eaten alive by his employer who gradually takes his life away. Your prospect jealously looks on as others who went into action immediately succeed.
Winners in life don't wait. It is hard to win a race when everyone else has started and we are still considering if we should start.
I guess we can use this "Jungle Law" in our careers also. Maybe we can be the first to take part in our company's promotions, registering for conventions, doing our required volume, etc.

Thanks for yet another great tip from Tom Big Al Schreiter.

Six Ways to Save Money

When flying, schedule very early morning flights or holidays. You'll save at least 10% flying on these non-peak times. Also, traveling on a Tuesday or Wednesday can save you 5-25 percent over other days of the week.

Make your donation dollars go further. Research your charity on charitynavigator.org. Focus your support on one charity, instead of scattershooting. Charities spend many promotional dollars contacting previous donors, so if you only plan to donate once, ask the charity to delete your name from the database.

Replace your old appliances. The money you spend now versus later on replacing old energy-efficient appliances is significant when you consider how much wasted energy you'll spend until it finally breaks down. You can donate older-model, working appliances for a tax credit, instead of sending a broken down model to the dump. Look for government rebates for purchasing new green appliances.

Take advantage of free credit reports. You're entitled to three a year—one from each bureau—yet only 4 percent of reports are claimed, according to smartcredit.com. Mistakes on your report could cause you to pay higher interest rates on loans, credit cards and mortgages.

Use your local library. You'd be surprised how many current CDs, DVDs and best-selling books you can find. For free.

Mail-in rebates beware. The National Consumers League estimates at least 45% of mail-in rebates go unclaimed—and that's their most conservative estimate. Send away for rebates the day you make a purchase while you have the form, receipt and appropriate documentation handy.

“Let a person rejoice when he is confronted with obstacles, for it means that he has reached the end of some particular line of indifference or folly, and is now called upon to summon up all his energy and intelligence in order to extricate himself, and to find a better way; that the powers within him are crying out for greater freedom, for enlarged exercise and scope.” —James Allen

“As long as we are persistent in our pursuit of our deepest destiny, we will continue to grow. We cannot choose the day or time when we will fully bloom. It happens in its own time.”
