Jump to the SOLUTION Side and STAY there.
Many believe that SIMPLY BRINGING up PROBLEMS is BEING on the solution side. NOT SO that makes them whingers and whiners and puts them on the PROBLEM side EVEN when the problem is real.
Others are put on the problem side because the problem they 'perceive' is a problem ONLY to them.
LANDING IN the problem BUCKET as a 'complainer' in this climate will cost you your job.
THERE IS a wrong way and a RIGHT way to go about IDENTIFYING a REAL problem , PITCHING and DELIVERING a workable solution for it, so it lands you directly in with the most VALUED... in the solution bucket.

Not Getting Any Younger
Hear yourself or a colleague saying.. "I've been doing the same job... I am very good at it... I love it BUT... "
HOW do I get a bigger RETURN on my TIME doing what I LOVE.. BECAUSE I'm NOT getting any younger
Then is perhaps NOW the time to position yourself intelligently
as a (highly paid) Expert in the field you love.
- My family is growing
- My responsibilities are increasing
- My expenses are ballooning
- My debt is increasingly a burden
- My rate if anything is going backwards
HOW do I get a bigger RETURN on my TIME doing what I LOVE.. BECAUSE I'm NOT getting any younger

The (highly paid) Expert Market
I was listening to Brendon Burchard... founder of Experts Academy, on "Becoming a Highly-Paid Expert" and
I like Brendon's Definition of an expert BEING a Credible Authority who DEFINES:
Have a Listen and I was wondering
how YOU would like to STRIP AWAY all the "generalities" around
and most IMPORTANTLY how to APPLY that using aspects of the Five Way Five Area STRATEGY around positioning yourself intelligently as a highly paid expert CUSTOMISED for the Helpdesk Support, Deployment and Security market.
I like Brendon's Definition of an expert BEING a Credible Authority who DEFINES:
- WHAT to pay attention to,
- What things MEAN,
- HOW things work,
- How things MIGHT turn out
Have a Listen and I was wondering
how YOU would like to STRIP AWAY all the "generalities" around
- 4 areas of expertise you must master at work (or risk disaster)
- 8 things experts DO (this is why they're paid so much)
- 11 ways to position yourself as an expert
- How experts get paid millions of dollars for their information
and most IMPORTANTLY how to APPLY that using aspects of the Five Way Five Area STRATEGY around positioning yourself intelligently as a highly paid expert CUSTOMISED for the Helpdesk Support, Deployment and Security market.
Do you want to SELL OR do you want to ...
Learn HOW to HELP the interviewer BUY (you)?
The biggest mistake most (not all) technically oriented people make is their MINDSET.
The believe (have SET in THEIR mind) that they have to SELL when that is NOT true... Its a MISTAKEN belief. Its in fact a mistake in their thinking.
The reality is you CANNOT sell a person anything UNLESS the person WANTS to BUY what you have to offer.
You can try and sell the interviewer on your MAINFRAME software skills all you like...
AND I guarantee you it will be without success when the INTERVIEWER'S is looking to BUY a solution according to a very specific ISSUE BRIEF.
So you can learn SALES skills that try to 'sell', 'push', 'convince', 'persuade', 'convince', 'trick' interviewer into needing your mainframe software skills...
OR
you can learn how to HELP the INTERVIEWER BUY according to their ISSUE brief that you may NOT be a solution for.
HELPING an interviewer BUY feels FAR more NATURAL and is much more satisfying BECAUSE it requires you to POSITION yourself around THEIR situation rather than having to KNOCK yourself out pushing, convincing, persuading, tricking into something they DON'T want.

INVEST - Daytrader
Learn to INVEST
You only have 24 hours in a day... Your contracting day rate unfortunately has a ceiling.
Thankfully there ARE other ways to 'increase' your 'overall' rate.
One of them is to learn to day trade.
Fortunately there is a way to avoid the pitfall of being a lone trader.
Pay DAYTRADER a visit to see what I mean.

The Edge
So if getting a higher rate is about getting the edge how do you go about getting the edge right now? or is that not important in getting a higher rate?
Get Assistance
...and ELIMINATE beliefs and conditioning around MONEY, RATE, WORTH. The Lefkoe Method will assist you to eliminate belief and conditioning around securing a higher rate.
The Lefkoe Method will help you eliminate your negative emotions around rate for good because
it will assist you to make a distinction between the original real cause of the emotion and the events that just happened to be occurring at the time.
"HOW does making mistakes, being criticized, not meeting expectations, being rejected, and a host of other non-scary situations get conditioned to produce anxiety around asking for more?"
I like how Morty put it
"Its like reacting to an imaginary FIST everytime an icecream gets handed to us"
I'm curious. WHAT imaginary FIST is being reacted to everytime an icecream gets handed to you?" WHAT beliefs and conditioning are being reacted to whenever its about MONEY, RATE, your WORTH?
