Good Monday Mourning, Have you recently made an error and regretted it? I just did. Take a look at how I spelled "mourning." It should be morning (although this could be a play on words for you!) This normally wouldn't be picked up by spell-check and you would probably wonder why this wasn't picked up by me either. This week's podcast is with Craig Silverman, journalist and author of Regret the Error. We have all made mistakes. Some are small, such as the spelling mistake that that I used in my example. Other mistakes, such as choosing the wrong role, or a misunderstanding with your boss, could have a much greater impact on your professional life. Craig shared "You will make mistakes in your life - it is important to understand the root cause. Your recovery from them is the key." In my interview, Craig also shared some really great advice to help you with the "recovery" phase. This week, see your mistakes as opportunities to improve, rather than as reasons to feel bad. 25 minutes. Sit back, relax and learn!

After our meeting monday I contacted a designer in Montreal that I knew was looking for a sales rep. I told her I am starting a sales agency we meet last Friday in Montreal and it's now official I will be representing her for spring line. So I will be starting to sell this August for spring. I will start with her line and will be looking to ad a new designer every season. She told me what I have to offer is very in demand she said a lots of designers deal with big agency in Toronto and are not getting the service they want... so its a great opportunity for me.
I already contact another designer and she sounded very interested in my service too. To be profitable I need to have a few deisgners 5 or 6 maybe more I think it might take a year or 2 but when things I going to start rolling it will be great.
I feel I am connecting the dots of my career from all my past experience and it just feels right. It it will be great I can feel it!!! It will be very rewarding . This is the right path for me.
I want to thank you for everything you did. When you told me monday that I can't be a in competitive situation, I can't wait for the job posting I have to go out and get it. Well this is what I did and it's all because of your great advice.
