I finished the above book this week, and I'm getting anything that I want. The book is about how to guerrilla market yourself. I know. Gives you images of me suiting up and going to some foreign country. NO, it's a book about selling yourself. Wait, that came out wrong. A book about marketing your interests and taking from the world whatever you need. First, though, you need to find out what your position is with the people around you. You have to know and accept how they see you. So fill a room with your friends. I don't recommend family or enemies, in my case the same thing. Make sure that you have wined and dined the group, then put the 20 chairs in a circle and ask pointed questions and take notes on yourself.
Find out first with general conversation if you make a good impression. Now they are in your den, and , hopefullllllllly, mellow. Encourage them all to make a laundry list of what they think of when your face pops into their conscious. Do they think, brilliant or dim? Classy or brassy? Calculating or emotional? Remember, honesty is the policy that you are working on developing.. Not their honesty, yours. They are not about to say to your face that you are a brassy broad that needs to soften those highlights. Who, when pinned in between Darryl and Darryl, is going to admit that they have always thought you were too stupid to pull this off? Now, are you getting a feel for the guerrilla tactics? They are going to tell you in front of 20 others that they think you are the best thing next to sliced bread. Keep pointing out, humbly, that you want honest opinions as you work on self-improvement. In case you doubt them, insist that they write down all of these ideas. You will walk away from the night finding that all people avoid you and give you whatever you want to escape this looney house. Mission Accomplished.
