“5 Steps to Rapid Employment”

Mechele Small, Cocoa Beach, Florida, came to this program feeling hopeless and lacking Confidence as a result of being unemployed for 2 years. Hear her speak eloquently and confidently about how this program changed her life immediately!
STEVE and BAINE SCHAIFER
My life was in shambles. Some 22 years ago I graduated from the Wharton School of Business but recently, found myself on the verge of bankruptcy and closing a business I poured my heart and soul into. At age 44, I found myself on the brink of divorce, being separated from my daughter, and losing my dignity, confidence and self respect. Then I began to work with Jay Block and also got his new CD program. I soon discovered that it was my emotions that stood in the way of my success. I realized I had the skills, abilities, qualifications, and desire to be successful, but was not in control of my emotions. Jay’s coaching taught me specific techniques to manage and control my emotions in order to optimize my skills and potential. Today, 2 months after working with Jay, I have forged a new relationship with myself, have extraordinary career opportunities, and as you can see, I have a new loving relationship with my daughter. How do you put a value on that?

Jay Block’s coaching expertise and his new CD have dramatically transformed my life! My health, career and relationships are at an all time high – and I am now living “on purpose” and realizing my true potential. My achievements have been nothing less than life changing. I have a new and rewarding job; I joined a health club and am getting back in peak physical condition; and I am, once again, an inspiration to my children and friends. When it comes to techniques and functional concepts that improve every aspect of life, Jay’s system is enjoyable, powerful, and highly effective. He’s the best of the best!

“Jay Block conducted an outstanding two-day certification program for our regional PGA Career Consultants including myself. Our team of professional Consultants has extensive backgrounds and experience in corporate HR and golf management. During this outstanding program, Jay introduced innovative and powerful tools, techniques, and philosophies on a variety of topics including empowerment, strategic interviewing, value-based resume development, and so much more. Jay’s presentation style was perfect for our group and his content was especially valuable and useful to help our Consultants serve, coach and counsel our 17,000 PGA members.

Giorgio Isella, International Gaming Executive
Isle of Capri Resort Freeport, Grand Bahamas “Jay Block has been my career coach and success mentor since 1994. He has helped me secure employment both in the US and in the international arena. Before I worked with Jay, I always seemed to attract jobs that were below my capabilities – paying salaries far less than I was worth. Since working with Jay, my career and my life have never been the same. I have achieved my career goals and am living life the way I’ve always dreamed about. If more people invested in themselves by working with Jay Block – ‘the master coach,’ they would begin living life at a level they never thought possible for them.”

Randall Lee, Senior Finance Specialist

“Jay Block coaches with integrity, passion, and purpose. He coached me for less than a month and I identified a new career that I enjoy and now earn a solid 6-figure income. I was so miserable in my former career that it affected my entire life! My wife will tell you that Jay actually helped preserve our marriage. Today, I am living my dreams and live the kind of lifestyle I have always aspired to living. If you’re ready to change your life – invest in Jay Block. It will be the best investment you’ll make in yourself!”
