Excerpt from “How You Leave Them Feeling”

The following is an excerpt from Chapter 9 “Friends and Family: A Global Community—The Village Shines the Light” of Jesse Ferrell’s new book, How You Leave Them Feeling.

“You have a treasure trove of opportunities to develop other family connections”

“How You Leave Them Feeling” discusses how people often feel that they are not getting what they deserve out of life and how they think that they can not do anything about the situation. This book is designed to help people view their life and their interactions with other people in a new, more positive way, one that will help them realize new opportunities and see the world in a more optimistic and exciting light.

The key component of the book, which is well depicted by its proposed title, is for people to focus on how they make others feel and to consciously make an effort of leaving every interaction on a positive note. This one concept, which can be applied to anyone from students, parents and teachers to vice presidents and CEOs of major corporations, is fully controlled by the person them self. “I strongly believe that we control our own destiny,” adds Jesse. “By consciously focusing on how you treat people and how you leave them feeling, can affect what you receive from them in return. Essentially, we can learn to help ourselves by learning how to help others.”

The book will touch on many aspects within the focus of how you make others feel, including learning from other people, developing your communication skills, leaving a signature and controlling your attitude. Real life examples and a “how to guide” for success are included, all with the goal of helping people be the best they can.

Rather than harboring resentment and frustration over the things your first family did not or could not give you, find a way through the second family option to persevere toward the brightest light of life. And, rather than waiting for your second family options to show up at your door step, venture out and endeavor to earn the sustenance they offer. Your passion for self-improvement can only be matched by your perseverance of seeing the journey of second family gifts achieved. Passion and perseverance are compliments in this endeavor. You could not achieve your maximum development and second family acquisition without the team work of passion and perseverance. This is backed by proper planning.

You have a treasure trove of opportunities to develop other family connections along the way. In fact, should you decide to develop other relationships, think big. Continue to peal back multiple layers off the onion of life. At the same time, create maximum diversity in building your extended families. Wherever you are in life, declare to seek and behold the best second family relationships imaginable and vow to leave your signature on them.

The paradigm created from this type of forward thinking is the answer to all that you can dream and become! Anyone, without much effort, can become good at what they do or become good in managing life’s general skills. However, it takes a very special person to embark upon the road to greatness. Moreover, no one in history has ever become great alone! Julius Caesar had his empire, Jesus Christ had his disciples and Winston Churchill had the love and support of an entire nation and related allies.

All of these great leaders were supported by their village. They created mastermind alliances within the village and were fully supported in the efforts to become great through leadership mastery. These charismatic leaders gleaned light and wisdom from their village and returned that energy back to important others and their societies. The village shines the light!

Who are the members of your village? Is your village moving you in the direction toward the light of your destiny? Is there confusion, neglect or apathy creating shadows in your path? Is it worse; is it complete darkness, like staring into a mirrored reflection of crude oil? Are you standing still or regressing? If you can’t answer positively to these questions, you just may need to let go of your current village!
