You're excited you found the job that you want and they are offering it to you. You are ready to shout "yes" from the hills. Don't. I am going to tell you what I tell each of my career clients, wait, delay, pull off the road and call me, immediately. At the time of the offer may be the only time that you have to optimize to sweeten the pot, to not only get the job but to also get the salary, the job title and the flexibility you need to enjoy the lifestyle you desire.

The way we look at ourselves has so much to do with how we influence others. In fact, the way we see ourselves is our choice. If we see ourselves in a negative way, then it just follows that we become introverted and therefore ineffective in empowering others. In order to influence others, we have to set a good example and this requires perceiving ourselves in a positive way. If you think that you are incompetent in just about anything, then you certainly will not be effective in everything you do.

It goes without saying that people who are in power are influential. An influential person usually doesn't have a hard time getting other people to do something or listen to his personal views. Basically, an influential person can make things happen with just a snap of the finger. When you are influencing someone, you are changing his behavior in a way. But before you can become a source of influence, you must first have an understanding of the human behavior. Did you know that the word "because" has a profound effect in the way you influence others?

It is true that when you empower other people, you are not only influencing them, but you also empower the people they influence. So when you empower another person, you are actually giving him the power to accomplish something. Thus, you are basically giving others the ability to empower, too. But how will you be able to empower another person? The truth is empowerment is the product of responsibility and authority. When you empower someone, you must also give him the authority to make decisions in order for him to accomplish his responsibilities.

I bet you started your morning looking at your daytimer, blackberry, outlook calendar, covey planner or whichever of the many tools and resources we have for managing our time. Did you look at your actions, your "to do" list for today? Actions are tactics, processes to achieve our goals. I have to be honest in saying I've never been one to totally master the use of my time like a fine tuned resource. It is something I work on each and every day.

One point of influence is the law of reciprocity. This has been proven to be very effective time and time again. Even a movie was made about it. Each time you give something of value, expect other people to give you something in return. This has been proven to be true in a lot of cases. Sometimes, when we give something to others, they unknowingly give back or even feel obliged to reciprocate in one way or another. And it also feels so good. More business is won if comes from a place of servitude.

You can empower yourself if you have the knowledge of who you really are and what your real purpose in life is. But it is also important that we touch the lives of other people in order for our lives to be more meaningful. You should get more out of your life. One way of accomplishing this is extending yourself to others who need help. This way, you are empowering others with your life. But it is also important that you analyze first your self if you are really a source of empowerment to others. Are you noticing the words that you speak to other people?

We all have destinations in mind, getting to work, driving home, going to your usual clients. A destination can even mean reaching someone at a different level, tuning in, being able to influence someone to be more responsive. When was the last time you approached your destination from a different direction? Even a geography change can mix things up a bit. Recently on vacatio I decided to sit on the other side of the boat for our sunset cruise around the lake.
