I Can Help Everyone In The World!

By Raymond Sahley

As a restaurant management recruiter, I help a lot of people find new and exciting careers in the food service industry. Although I can't directly place or find career opportunities for everyone, I always provide some degree of help on their search.

This can be help through my website with the resume writing, help with their interviewing skills and preparation, help with tips on what to wear and what to follow up with and when, help with personally assessing who they really are and what they want... to anything you can possibly imagine.

I started my own recruiting firm back in January with the sole purpose of helping great people find great opportunities. I didn't care too much for the corporate attitude of "We Can't Help That Person", which directly translates into we can't make any damn money from representing them for placement with one of our client companies.

There could be a number of reasons why we couldn't represent the candidates to our client companies. Their tenure at their current employer wasn't long enough, they have had three jobs in the past 11 months, they have been out of restaurants for 7 months and so on. Every reason for a company to reject a candidate was presented to me, but I knew it wasn't right and I still know that today!

Surely, there had to be a way, I could make a difference even with the people I couldn't directly help place. But I didn't want to stop there. Yes it's very fulfilling helping people out with great tips on how to better themselves on their own career search, but why not aim higher and try to help everyone in the world on one level or another.

Help is an infinite word in my eyes and I know that if we all strive to be more benevolent people we can assist others and make the world a better place.

I have been pursuing a dream and a target goal of helping others succeed for 12 months now, thanks in large part to my friend Kenny, and I derive great pleasure from that everyday. Even when things get me down, I know that in the end IT WILL ALL BE WORTH IT. I'm paraphrasing Ziglar when I repeat, "If you help enough people achieve their goals, you will achieve yours"!

If I had a mantra or mission statement, then that is mine.

Now I can help a ton of people as a recruiter, but as a human being who has harnessed the power of positive mental attitude and The Secret, I can help everyone in the world if I truly want to. If you find the picture of Rocky on the website you can find your secret to a better life.

Whether or not you accept my help is completely up to you, but understand if you choose to accept help from whomever, you will find yourself traveling down the correct path towards success and opportunity you never dreamed possible.

The truth is that I CAN help everyone in the world, but I am not alone! We ALL have the power and the hidden potential to help others if we desire to do so.

When you give up that negative mental attitude you acquired and embrace the positive side you were born with, only then will you start your journey.
