Center for Employment Opportunities: More Employment Resources For Felons

The Center for Employment Opportunities is an organization the has provided reentry resources for those reentering society following incarceration. They have functioned as an invaluable source of training, resources and job placement for individuals with felony criminal backgrounds for 27 years and have helped over 34,000 felons find success. They use their experience and expertise to advocate for and assist ex offenders and their communities to build stronger employment opportunities and help ensure long term productivity.

While locations don't yet exist in every state it is the organization's goal to continue to expand their mission to as many states as they can. They currently serve 31 cities in 12 states.

If you live in one of these states I encourage you to explore the avenues available to you through this organization. Then come back and let us know about what you discover as it may be valuable to other Jobcase members like yourself.

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read Without Failure.)

If you're waiting for the postman to deliver that mail: Letter for Success! Guess what? He's still searching for your name.

You are the ONLY person that can "reposition yourself for success."

Here's the twist...

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read.)

True happiness belongs to you, therefore, it's your sole responsibility to acquire it, secure it, and protect it for yourself.

Robin Hood was traditionally depicted as someone that robbed from the rich and give to the poor. (That was his business process.)

What is your process? If you rob yourself of your own personal happiness, then, who will you eventually give it to? It's gone!

Don't' rob yourself of happiness that was designated to you. Plus, don't allow others to become a thief in your life.

Protect your happiness, it's all you have.

I Believe You Can...!

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read Without Failure.)

Many people have been conditioned to believe, what they already don't believe. This is the reason why, they can't believe, that good things can come in their life. Its NOT your fault.

Don't let this happen to you!

When you can find the...1) Faith, 2) Hope, 3) Courage, and 4) Strength, to believe in yourself. Guess what?

Your whole life will turnaround, and everything else will begin to work in your favor. According to your level of faith, and efforts towards your goals. (Heb. 11:1)

Things will come to YOU. (See illustration below.)

I Believe You Can...!

I'm telling you the truth..(Very Important.)

My friends, today there are many different types of lights in the world. Perhaps, the natural light outside; the incandescent light inside; and then your personal light that only YOU can bring into this world.

No doubt in my might that, one light shines brighter than all other lights known to man. Right?

Listen very carefully, "you are the light of the world" (Matt. 5:16). Therefore, what happens when you decide to walk in your light?

Doors open in your favor, and many unannounced. (See illustration below.)

I Believe You Can...!

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read)

SCENARIO: A Fortune 500 Company has been seeking to fill a corporate position for approximately eight (8) months, and to no avail. On this very day Friday, they have interviewed nine(9) persons , and, three(3) others left because of fear. As the long day is winding down, let's listen to the last candidate after he walks in...

Mr. Charles, sir, we have rigorously screened nine(9) candidates ahead of you. Also, we have asked each person a series of the same questions, as we did with you. We would like to present the final question.

Mr. Charles, please tell us..."Why should we hire you for this corporate level position?

Ma'am, and to the board members..."that is why you should hire me for this corporate level position."

FAST FORWARD: As illustrated below, how did Mr. Charles respond to the question, and what did he say, to receive the Handshake of Approval?

LESSONS LEARNED: It's not who you know, or what you know that gets you the job, rather, it's truly who you are that makes the difference!

That's how you get the Handshake of Approval.

I Believe You Can...!

I'm telling you the truth...(Read Without Failure.)

PENDING ACTIONS:

Many people have lived a Hollywood life with a smile on their face. Until the lights go out, and the cameras stop rolling, and the Film Director says..."no more Take 1, 2 or 33."

Between an acting career, and situations on the real stage of life, this is what you should know:

You can rewrite your script for the rest of your life.

TAKING ACTION:

  1. Decide what you want.
  2. Decide what you need.
  3. Decide who's in or out.
  4. Decide your level of happiness.
  5. Decide what's important or not.

Rewrite your script in life accordingly, and as you desire. Then, allow, everything to fall-in-place. (Heb. 11:1)

I'm telling you the truth...

The biggest struggle that people have in the job market is...passing that "doggone" interview.

Actually, some quality people have fallen to the wayside; have bitten the dust of bitterness, and have scraped the barrels of the bottomless pit.

Don't let this happen to YOU.

Folks, in June I'm going to highlight four(4) profound things you need to know when you walk into that interview.

Don't dare miss these four points. Knowing them could impact your outcome.

Will you be there?

I Believe You Can..I!

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read Without Failure.)

Many people fall-short for various reasons in life. Don't allow this to happen to you.

Listen carefully...

There are two known systems in the Global Life of Technology:

  1. The Default System: Like a computer the "default system" gives you what you need to function day-by-day.

  2. The Design System: Liken to an architect who puts in-place a foundation for what you want for years to come.

Think about any Artist, Actor, Athlete or Entertainer at this moment, and you'll realize how they went from ordinary to extraordinary in record time.

They believed in themselves, and you can too. Use your tools, to carve out what you really want in life. (See illustration below.)

Then, everything else will fall-in-place for you.

I Believe You Can...!

I'm telling you the truth...(Must Read Without Failure.)

It can take a person almost a lifetime to recognize this principle of truth. Please, don't let this happen to you.

*Treasures Belong To You, as with each one of us. When you unleash the greatness in you, treasures will find its way to gravitate towards you.

Sometimes you have to sit alone and search your heart. Meditate on the more important things in life.

The voice of faithbsays...the best of you is yet to come, and that greatness is inside of you. Don't procrastinate, start searching your heart.

  • You are Special.
  • You are Worthy.
  • You are Beautiful.
  • You are Wonderful.
  • You are Amazing.
  • You are Incredible.
  • You are Awesome.

Lessons Learned: No matter how many life-building, or changing notes you read. The most important note may be written or unwritten, however, it will always state...

Believe in yourself, and everything else will turnaround in your favor.

I Believe You Can...!
