I find it interesting how well working out and interviewing go together. I enjoy coaching people on both. I find that many people do not know how to interview properly because they do not feel secure about themselves. Their are a few things they can do to change that. I have written a manual that explains the basics to a GOLDEN INTERVIEW @ goldeninterview.net. I have found that some extremely simple techniques are completely overlooked by this generation. First impressions are everything, simple things you say or do not say can cost you the opportunity.  My goal is to make sure everyone that will listen understands the do’s and don’ts to an interview. I would like to share a few interview tips along with a few work out tips and if you will follow them both you will see success in both. 

When you go to your interview dress nicely. Dress in a professional outfit that makes you feel great about yourself. Try and work out the day before so you feel even better about yourself. Make sure your outfit falls into the professional category but, look sharp! Make sure you stand up and greet the interviewer with a smile and at the same time express energy and passion while looking them in the eyes. I do not care what job you are interviewing for you will have an immediate edge if you can communicate and do so with some sincere passion and energy. I am always shocked at how many people do not know how important a nice firm handshake is. So shake the hand firmly (guys don’t try to break their hand) and at the same time make sure that your hands are dry.

When you work out, exercise, run, bike, walk, swim, play soccer, racquetball or play with your kids you will find that the same rule of energy and passion apply. I know that working out can be fun and it can be a drag. I have created a website that offers everyone a workout plan that fits their goals and desires. bodyofconfidence.net allow everyone the opportunity to have a certified trainer . This sight truly makes it extremely easy for everyone to obtain their physical goals.  If you have an organized work out plan (bodyofconfidence.net provides) , and you are able to see the correct way to exercise (bodyofconfidence.net shows you exactly how to perform over 4500 different exercises), and you bring the passion and the willingness to work out for 30 minutes you will have a GREAT WORKOUT and GREAT RESULTS!

I have found that the key to working out is keeping it fun. Here are a few ways to work out/exercise and keep it fun.

1) play some of your most motivating music (an Ipod is great for this)

2) change up the order of your exercises each week

3) change up where you work out when possible (home, gym or different walking path (please pick safe areas to walk)

4) set goals with target dates and make it a competition with yourself or even better turn it into a competition with some folks at your office or family members.

Until next time, have a great workout and if you are interviewing for a job make sure you give them the golden interview!

Have a blessed day!
