I'll never forget the year 1989, and the moment
I'd submitted my Harvard admissions essay with a typo in it.
I had spelled "coercion" as "coersion."
I had never seen the word before (until I read it in a book a few weeks later, and realized my mistake).
Words ending in -cion are much more common in Spanish than in English. It simply never occurred to me that it could be spelled that way.
I went to my guidance
counselor at North Andover High School in Massachusetts and asked if I was doomed. I was half-expecting him to say, "Oh, it can happen to anyone. Don't worry about it."
Instead, he said: "You applied to other schools, right?"
Ouch.
Well, I got admitted anyway.
But that wasn't the last time a guidance counselor steered a young person wrong.
The career advice these days is like nothing has changed since 1957.
So remember: one hour from now, live, I'll be giving you the kind of presentation most people pay hundreds of dollars for, except mine is free (and better, frankly).
We're going to talk about how to avoid letting technology get you caught up in the "infinite workday," and instead force it to do your will: namely, to make
your life easier, more relaxed, more prosperous, and less frenetic.
I've been mentioning that I'm giving away a special worksheet that will help you take what you learn and apply it to your specific situation.
What I haven't mentioned is that the "worksheet" is actually 12 pages long, and which you will find highly valuable. Ol' Woods always overdelivers.
But you have
to be there live and stay to the end to get it. The event is free, but that's the one catch.
We start at 3pm Eastern. Register now to reserve your spot:
