Unleash The Power Within To Reach Career Success
Written by Jon on June 13, 2010 – 1:43 pm -If you want a better life for yourself and your family, you must develop the self discipline and desire to unleash the power within to make your goals and dreams a reality.
“It’s never too late to be who you might have been.” – George Elliot
Sadly, far too many hairdressers struggle to make a good living and never reach their full learning and earning potential because it requires hard work, continuing education, extra effort, sacrifices, and a lot of perseverance.
Building a successful hairdressing career is a journey that requires patience and a quest for self improvement and knowledge.
Good is not enough anymore in today’s tough economy; especially if you want to stand above the crowd and gain that all important competitive edge.
You and you alone hold the keys to your own success or failure.
Are you willing to take full responsibility for your own success or failure or will you join the crowd of people who are always looking for excuses to fail?
Let my book a “Hairdresser’s Guide to Success—Personally, Professionally, and Financially’’ and my audio CD – “A Hairdresser’s Journey to Excellence” serve as your road map in helping you make your goals and dreams a reality.
Anything is possible if you believe!

Hi,
I agree with just about everything you have to say here, it’s super positive, empowering and inspiring. I like to think that I have been mindful of cultivating my skills as a hairstylist/artist/motivator and have honed and put into practice many of the things you have talked about. I do have a concern, though, and that is, I feel that salon owners have a tendency to hold their employees back sometimes even encouraging , I work in NY and the problem I find with this industry

Hi,
I agree with just about everything you have to say here, it’s super positive, empowering and inspiring. I like to think that I have been mindful of cultivating my skills as a hairstylist/artist/motivator and have honed and put into practice many of the things you have talked about. I do have a concern, though, and that is, I feel that salon owners have a tendency to hold their employees back sometimes even encouraging gossip and pettiness among employees. What can an employee do about a bad boss? It’s easy to say, you should look for another job, but no one wants to jump around, jobs aren’t easy to find in this economy and there just seems to be this sort of oppressive owner mentality. I feel I’m working harder than I have to and even though I’ve raised my prices, I’m making less?? Do you have any advice (short of opening your own salon) on how to keep your sanity, succeed and perhaps even thrive in a non supportive environment? I love my clientele but I’m really thinking twice about staying in this industry. Thanks for letting me vent. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
