"Couriers Fly Free or At A Very Low Cost","Couriers fly all over the world - free or at a very low cost.  Courier companies contract with businesses to have their valuable documents and goods flown to destinations all over the world and they use the checked or carry-on baggage allowance of average travelers to get the very best air transfer rate.  In exchange, they provide airline tickets for the travelers (their couriers) at a very low cost - sometimes even free - at absolutely no cost.  How would you like to pay these fares for round-trip flights out of US gateway cities - Caracas $100, Tokyo $400, Quito $150, Mexico City - Free, Seoul $350, or Madrid $200.  In this short course you will learn everything you need to do to start traveling the world spending less on airfare each month than many spend on commuting to work.  Learn: which companies offer the best free and reduced cost fares; how to beat the system and pay even less than the average courier pays; how to make absolutely certain that you will never carry anything illegal for a courier company; how to contract for back-to-back courier service so that instead of visiting only one country, you can fly to two or three continents in one trip; how your spouse or friend can travel with you at the same low courier rates you pay; how to bring much more than the bare necessities even when you give up some luggage allowance for the courier service; and much much more!

Find out how to get invited to a group interview, how to positively stand out in the crowd, what to say to make a positive impression, and how to make your resume one that says, ""hire me"".

"Are You Chronically Disorganized?","We are all disorganized from time to time.  Most of us run late, lose our keys, or fail to file a report when we are overwhelmed by papers, possessions, and have too much to do. You, or someone you love, might face a special challenge such as ADD/ADHD that makes getting and staying organized particularly difficult.  The three telltale signs are: 1) Has getting organized always been a challenge?  2) Does your disorganization cause you problems nearly every day?  3) Have you tried and failed time and again to get organized on your own? Join this class to find out if you are really chronically disorganized - or not.  Find that you are part of a large community of people who have never learned organizing skills in a framework that works with your own positive attributes.  Learn to adopt simple – and some unconventional – organizing and time management strategies in your own life.

With practice, you begin to recognize and support cyclic changes in your personal life.  You become balanced, centered and whole.
