Thethought came to me that we should call Jim Cheap Jeffery Simmons Jersey , a certaincompetitor, and ask him if he would send us some of hisextra business. The thought seemed so ridiculous that Ididn't even voice it. What? Ask a competitor forbusiness? It was too far-fetched to consider.
A week later at a trade meeting, I bumped into Jim. Wetalked for a little while about our various businessesand then I did a strange thing. I asked him if he hadany extra business that he couldn't handle at thepresent time. I told him that we had some excesscapacity at the plant and would be willing to help himout.
Jim looked at me and smiled. "I wish you had asked methat last week," he said. "You see, John, we recentlyacquired two new, large accounts but we didn't want tolose some of our smaller accounts.

Sometimes helpcomes from strange places. In addition to writingarticles Cheap Titans Jerseys , newsletters and books, lecturing andconducting seminars, I am also an intuitive consultant.It never ceases to amaze me how many people call me fora consultation, guidance and insigt and say that theywere led to call me through something they saw on mywebsites, the suggestion of a friend, a book they reador even a dream.
