THE CONTEXT

The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.

William Arthur Ward, Author (19211994)

T here is a sign in my office that says, Welcome to the Tough Love Dispensary. Well, reader, welcome to my officein book form. 101 Ways to Find Work is straight talk on how to deal with the working world the way it really is, not how we'd like it to be. As a career mentor and educator who is dedicated to preparing my clients to be successful, to supporting and empowering them to make their dreams come true, I can do no less. There are things in this book that you may not want to hear, but I believe you need to hear (or, more accurately, read).

Whatever your vocational goals, whatever stage you are in your careerwhether it's just beginning or you're close to retiring but you can't afford to stop making moneythis book will help you get from here to there, turning your dreams and fantasies into actions and results.

I'm known among my colleagues as the human alarm clock because I wake people up to what's possible in themselves and in the world. I hold three degrees: a B.A. in Sociology, an M.A. in Broadcast Communication Arts (Radio and Television), and an Ed.D. in Organizational Leadership. I've worked with literally hundreds of clients and studentsfrom teenagers to adults in their sixtiesat 16 (and counting) different colleges and universities. I know that, with the exception of retirees who always wanted to take a film course at their local community college, all students go to school for primarily one reason: to increase their earning power.
