World-Famous Millionaire Mind Intensive Returns to Vancouver
Posted: at 5:40 pm
Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) March 13, 2012
Late last year, New York Times bestselling author and founder of Peak Potentials, T. Harv Eker, announced that Peaks Potentials had been acquired by Success Resources, an event production company that stages live and online events around the world in the personal success training category.
Since then Peak Potentials has been operating with the leadership of Adam Markel, a successful trainer, attorney and entrepreneur, as Chief Executive Officer plus the support of Success Resources to grow the North American operations of their business by continuing its valuable work in the area of training, education, and self-development
There is a wide misconception in society about the motivational training business. I hate to disappoint readers, but this industry is not a money-grabbing scheme; the Millionaire Mind Intensive is not a scam. We know as do our clients that you can make your fortune by following the simple tips that we teach says Markel in his first press appearance since being named Chief Executive Officer of New Peaks in November.
I prefer to be known as the Chief Energy Officer. I believe that anybody can be successful, regardless of their background or education. Its a matter of wanting to, then having the drive to do what it takes to achieve it. My goal is to inspire my team and our event participants, and show them that they have the power to get what they want from life.
Their flagship program, The Millionaire Mind Intensive, is a one-of-a-kind program where you spend three days rewiring your brain so you will think like the millionaire you want to be but for some reason have not yet become.
During the course participants experience more than just a bit of money talk. Participants are encouraged to do emotional searching of why they act the way they do around money, and learn how to replace old patterns with new affirming and beneficial patterns that will also break them through blocks that are holding you back from success. Plus participants will leave with a simple yet powerful way of tracking money to help move towards total financial freedom.
Now, Peak Potentials is pleased to announce that the Millionaire Mind Intensive has been revamped to bring new and fresh content to the Vancouver marketplace from where the Millionaire Mind Intensive originated.
The event has already seen many enhancements since it first appeared on the Vancouver success training scene in 2005, and many world-class entrepreneurs and business owners attribute their success to Peak Potentials and their teachings.
Today, the event is structured to ensure that participants are armed with a new set of skills and information to survive and succeed in our new world; where technology is consistently evolving how we work both locally and on a global scale.

Law School Tips for Success
Posted: at 5:40 pm
Considering law school? Here are some pointers and suggestions to help you decide if a law degree is right for you.
Smart Choices
The effects of the recession are still lingering in the legal industry, but many partners at large law firms agree that the market has nearly stabilized. Intellectual property and energy law continue to be lucrativeand competitivespecialities. Most law schools also offer dual degrees, such as J.D./M.B.A. and J.D./M.A. degrees in a variety of fields, which give students greater interdisciplinary expertise that may be a benefit in the workforce.
[Find out what a dual J.D./M.B.A. can add to your education.]
Insider Tip
If you are set on a career in public interest law, don't let finances stop you. Many schools offer debt repayment options to students who work in the public sector, if their salaries are low enough. Low Income Protection Plans (LIPP) and Loan Repayment Assistance Programs (LRAP) at schools help students who work in the government and at nonprofits pay back their student loans through loan forgiveness, lower interest rates, or postponed payment plans.
Students with good credit can also fund their entire law education with a mixture of Stafford loans and Grad PLUS loansboth of which are government-run borrowing programs. Better yet, to keep your repayment plan affordable, the government will now tie it to your income, if it's low enough. If you're still working in the public or nonprofit sector after 10 years and you've stayed on top of your payments, the rest of your debt can be wiped clean.

Engineering School Tips for Success

Considering engineering school? Use these pointers and suggestions to help you decide if an engineering program is right for you.
Smart Choices
Biomedical engineering: Americans are living longer today and advances in medical technology are essential to making healthcare services more affordable to an aging population. Plus, no single occupation is expected to have more job growthemployment of biomedical engineers is expected to grow by 72 percent between 2008 and 2018, according to the U.S. Department of Labor.
Engineering management: You gain technical know-how plus management skills in this discipline, which is rapidly gaining popularity among business-savvy engineers who want a shot at consulting or administrative positions. Some students consider attaining a dual or joint degree to qualify for management positions in the engineering field.
[Check out the Best Engineering Schools rankings.]
Insider Tip
Be a people person: Professional engineers often work with colleagues in a number of different disciplines, so communication and teamwork skills are paramount, says Julia Galeazzi, associate director of the Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering Office of Development and Alumni Relations. During your graduate studies, participate in a 6- or 12-month cooperative education program that puts you in a practical work environment. You'll get real-world experience and will interact with people outside of academia.
Getting In
Recommendations: Along with grades and test scores, letters from former professors and employers count. Try to work one on one with an undergraduate professor and aim to build a strong relationship with him or her.
Introduce yourself: Since admissions are often decided among faculty rather than admissions officers, try to make contact with a potential adviser in your desired department. Start off with a "snail mail" introduction that includes a brief bio, a photo, and an explanation of why you'd like to work with that professor. Then, follow up via E-mail.

Paerson, Vonn separated by hunger for success
Posted: at 5:40 pm
SCHLADMING, Austria (AP)With all Lindsey Vonn and Anja Paerson have in common, one major difference has been separating the two skiing greats this seasontheir appetite for winning.
Whereas overall champion Vonn is more hungry for victories and records than ever, Paerson has lost her motivation and will retire after Thursdays super-G at the World Cup finals.
For me it has not been really about winning races anymore this season, said the 30-year-old Paerson, who has been struggling with a persistent left knee injury. Thats where I felt I wasnt the same in ski racing anymore.
Vonn and Paerson are two of only five female skiers to have won World Cup races in all five Alpine disciplines. Petra Kronberger of Austria, Pernilla Wiberg of Sweden and Janica Kostelic of Croatia also managed the feat.
Paerson led Vonn 42-41 in World Cup wins going into the current season, but the Swede failed to win a race and has been heavily outscored by her American opponent, who added 12 titlesa personal bestto her total.
Vonns most recent win came in Wednesdays downhill, a race Paerson watched from the stands.
It was not fun to watch the race. I think I could have won it, Paerson said.
After winning gold in slalom at the 2006 Turin Olympicsone of her 19 medals at major championshipsPaerson decided to continue her career for four more years.
I took a big step in 2006, she said. To be a four-discipline skier is very hard so I decided to stop after Vancouver. It was my big goal to come to the Olympics one more time.
In 2010, Paerson won her sixth Olympic medalbronze in the combined event and backed down on her decision. She felt it was too early to quit and decided to stay on the circuit for one more season.

Why success is all about relationships
Posted: at 5:40 pm
(MoneyWatch) COMMENTARY Now more than ever, there never seems to be enough time to get things done. Why that is, I don't know. But I do know that, in an era of social networking, telecommuting and virtual meetings, when it comes to work, the one thing that gets sacrificed is relationships.
Big mistake.
If you want to get somewhere in your career, in management, in business, the worst thing you can do is just focus on work, work, work. Success is all about relationships. Relationships with your management, boss, peers, employees, customers -- everyone in your immediate work ecosystem, if you know what I mean.
And I'm not just talking about working relationships; I'm talking about your personal relationships with these people, where you break through the workplace persona people use for whatever reason and actually connect with the human being beneath.
Just to be clear, this isn't about wasting people's time. That's a bad idea because, as I said before, that's the one precious commodity that nobody has enough of these days. But if you do it right -- if you're genuine, open and sensitive to people's boundaries -- you'll do fine.
Here are seven reasons why your success depends far more on those all-important interpersonal work relationships than you realize:
Any CEO, VC, or entrepreneur will tell you that their network is their biggest asset. And when it comes to networking, doing it old school is a major distinguishing factor versus social networking. When you have a personal relationship with someone, that creates a level of trust that sets you apart from the virtual hordes.
Strong relationships make it easier to get information and information is power. It could be about a major project, a key customer, budget cuts or an upcoming promotion. When it comes to important stuff, you have to give to get, and you're not going to get anything valuable from somebody who doesn't trust you.
Relationships get people through tough times. Long ago I learned that, all things being equal, a personal relationship will help you keep your job, win the business, whatever it is you need, it can make the difference when times are hard. It also means you have someone to lean on. Try leaning on someone you hardly know. Bad idea.
The higher up the corporate ladder you climb, the higher the stakes, the bigger the deals, the more important everything becomes. And that means people have to look you in the eye and feel confident that they know who they're looking at, that you'll do what you say you're going to do, get the job done, whatever. And vice versa.
