In Response To: Bookmark ideas (sandy)

Sandy,
Thanks for the soap link.
I didn't download any of the labels. Though looking at them there sure appears to be a LOT of text on them.
Here is the text on 3 of my bookmarks. Each bookmark is 2 inches wide and 7 inches tall and all text is justified...
Bookmark 1 - from Think and Grow Rich...
Six Steps To
Turn Desires
Into Gold
Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. It is not sufficient to merely say "I want plenty of money."Be definite as to the amount.
Determine exactly what you intend to give in return for the money you desire.
Establish a definite date when you intend to possess the money you desire.
Create a definte plan for carrying out your desire, and begin at once, whether you are ready or not, to put this plan into action.
Write out a clear, concise statement of the amount of money you intend to acquire, name the time limit for its acquisition, state what you intend to give in return for the money, and describe clearly the plan through which you intend to accumulate it.
Read you written statement aloud, twice daily, once just before retiring at night, and once after arising in the morning. As you read - see and feel and believe yourself already in possession of the money.

From The Richest Man in Babylon...
The Five
Money Laws
Money comes gladly and in increasing amounts to any man who will put by at least one-tenth (10%) of his earnings to create an estate for his future and that of his family.
Money works diligently and contentedly for the wise owner who finds profitable employment for it, multiplying like rabbits.
Money clings to the protection of the cautious owner who invests it under the advice of men wise in its handling.
Money slips away from the man who invests it in businesses or purposes with which he is not familiar or which are not approved by those skilled in its keep.
Money flees the man who would force it to impossible earnings or who follows the alluring advice of tricksters and schemers or who trusts it to his own inexperience and romantic desires.

And this one from negotiating stuff I picked up here and there (Smaller foint size than the others)...
8 Tips For Better
Negotiating
The Vice Gambit: When someone makes an offer say, "I'm sorry... you'll have to do better than that." If someone say the above to you, reply with, "Exactly how much better than that do I have to do?"
Bracketing: When offering, make it so the price you're willing to pay is half way between the asking price and your offer. E.g Asking $5 and you're willing to pay $4k ($1k less) then your offer should be $3k ($2k less). Often, it ends in the middle - exactly where you were willing to be - spliting the difference.
Taper Concessions: Reduce the size of the price moves you makem making sure to get smaller each time. It subliminally says "you wo't do better."
Easy Acceptance: Make small concessions right at the end. And always, when you are done, congratulate the other person.
Feel Felt Found: Don't argue. Agree and turn it around with Feel Felt Found. E.g. "I understand how you feel about that. Many others have felt exactly the same way as you do right now. But you know what we have found?"
Nibbling: Once a person has decided, they back up their decision. So always re-try to get something you couldn't get earlier. Such as, you just made a business deal and the salesman is feeling good and just before you sig you say, "We do get a 30 day account don't we?" COunter this with, "Oh come one, you negotiated a fantastic price with me. Don't make me wait for our money too, fair enough?" while grinning.
Flinch: Always flinch - react with surprise and shock - at the first proposal.
Trade Offe: Give something as long as you get something in return. E.g. "If we can do that for you, what can you do for us?" Or, "I don't think I can get my people to agree to that unless you're prepared to accept..."

And I have a couple of bookmark with even MORE text on them. In size 4 and 5 font!
