Don't you think it would make you more powerful if you could kiss your job goodbye whenever you wanted without concern?The Fear of TerminationI understand what it's like to live in constant fear of being fired or laid off. it's an unfortunate fact of life that many bosses use the threat of termination to remain in control. Unfortunately, using fear in this manner is prevalent in our society. It causes employees to be afraid and doubt themselves, and gives businesses reason to deny them them good raises and promotions as well as to maintain control.For years, I was afraid of losing my job. My employers often belittled my achievements, wrote snarling comments in reviews, or denied well-deserved raises and promotions. I held on in spite of the constant stress and pressure, the screaming and yelling, and the demands for unpaid work and overtime.As with many employees, this put extreme stress on my family life (which was often non-existent) and caused health problems related to Stressand Tension. As the yearly review came due, the question on everyone's mind was whether or not they'd still be employed in the next month.On those occasions when the hammer fell, it was devastating. Sure, my boss always said the employee should never be surprised by a firing decision, but every single time I had to let someone go, it came as horrible shock to them, completely unexpected and they always felt it was undeserved.Understand Your AlternativesI learned how to prepare by understanding my alternatives, knowing the legalities, and ensuring I had enough money and resources to survive without a job for enough time to find a new one. Understand what you must do on the day you quit or get fired. Learn that you must change your life to be ready for any eventuality. Stop being afraid of your employer and turn the tables on them.

My experiences during my final two years of Active Duty U.S. Military service led me to share the view I came to understand that, frankly, disgusted me.You see, once I realized I'd been LIE'd to, and that it was my fault for believing, I was able to embrace the truth, and pivot toward a different path than most of us take toward "military transition."This offer, the book, is only a small piece of the movement an entire generation of veteran's and service-members are creating.I offer you the opportunity to be a part of that right now.Our Nation is in great peril, and some serious domestic threats, national ones, are spilling over into the home of every U.S. Armed Forces Family.My oath, to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, doesn't stop upon my departure from Active Duty in October of 2022, but continues, and began well ahead of my last day in uniformed, uninformed service to the Nation.Now the question is, what will you do?Will you be the senior leader with this no-longer-a-secret "secret" -OR;- will you decide I'm just out to make a buck, and not embrace the opportunity in front of you right now?For fifteen dollars, less than a decent bottle of wine or a 12 pack of micro-brew, you can change your future, and that of those you care about.I've priced the book at $1/LIE and I throw in the truth for half off. But the benefits you'll get in not only time, but money, too, are timeless and priceless.I've packaged into these pages all I wished I'd known a decade-and-a-half ago upon stepping foot on the fast-attack submarine in the far western Pacific. It contains all I learned through my submarine force tour, my naval aviation tour, my experiences in the desert during the endless war, and at the burdensome staff assignments ashore.I tell my story within and equip you with the knowledge and information your family must have before that inevitable "Transition Ambush" happens. After you read it, I look forward to seeing you in the community to truly take care of our people.So, the big question is: How are service-members and spouses like us going to take back control and give our value to the world beyond military service? That is the question for us, and this book equips you with the answers.Now engage and help win this War for Liberty...& Freedom beyond ranks.To Your Liberty,#HeckYeah

My first few years working in recruitment felt empty and unfulfilling, so I sought meaning elsewhere in my life and began volunteering at a suicide hotline. During the rigorous training process, I was shown the dazzling power of active listening, of patiently and intentionally encouraging someone to say more about how they are feeling. It soon became clear that the techniques I was learning could revolutionize my approach to recruiting.The predominant issue in this field is that nobody teaches recruiters how to hire. There's no formula available, no set of steps based on best practices to follow, and as a result, hiring can be an intensely confusing process. Occasionally, we might get lucky and make a great hire, but we often settle for less than the perfect fit, hurting both our company and the candidate in the process.The hotline opened my eyes to the fact that it doesn't have to be this way. The process of recruiting can be smooth, structured, and reliable, and can even have a certain beauty to it. What I offer you in this book is not a highly specific approach that should be adopted to the letter; instead, it is a glossary of ideas that, if understood and embraced, can transform your recruiting process and, ultimately, your company. What's more exciting than that?
