You have a reason to excel at your job.
It's not because you love it and want to move up. It's not because you don't want to get fired.
Your reason to give it your best - no matter what the job is, how you feel about it, or how long you plan to stay - is that you can use your job to get what you want for your life.
You can use your current job to achieve any goal.
And to do it, you need to follow a specific, strategic 12-step process that will turn your job into a vehicle to any destination you want.
I've been trying to spread the message and method all over the Internet, and I've realized that what you really need is one place to get all of it. Each step, in detail, and with lots of support from me.
So right now I'm working on the creation of a course that will cover all 12 steps, and give you personalized action plans, and personal support.
I want you to be able to get started now, so I've decided that UNTIL THE ENTIRE COURSE IS FINISHED, I'll release each step as its own course, at a special reduced rate. Once courses for all 12 steps are finished, they will all be put together into one comprehensive course, with no more options to get it piece-by-piece.
Each of the 12 steps is its own subject (working with your boss, productivity, customer service, etc.), with steps and strategies of its own. So for now, you can pick from the available courses, choose a subject that interests you (or do what I recommend and get each step in order as it becomes available, taking advantage of the special low price), and get an in-depth and transformative course all on its own.
The course for Step 1 is now available, and you can get it HERE.

This is just a list of the most frequent questions, so if you don’t see yours answered here (or if you need more clarification about an answer I gave here), please feel free to email me! joanie@elmoregroupinc.com
THIS COURSE SAYS IT’S JUST “STEP 1” – WHAT RESULTS CAN I EXPECT FROM IT?
Yes, this course is for Step 1 of the process to Change Your Life with Your Job.
I’m releasing each step of this process as its own course for now, so you don’t have to wait for all 12 steps to be finished before you get started, so you can get courses for each step at special reduced rates, and because each step is so involved and effective by itself, it’s easily a full course.
Here’s what this course for Step 1 involves:
You’ll start the course by getting clear on exactly what you want for your life.
Then you’ll identify all the opportunities and advantages your current job (exactly as-is) offers you, and you’ll make a plan that dredges your job dry of everything you can take and use for reaching your personal goals.
Then you’ll plan for how you might evolve your current position to make it serve you even more.
Next, you’ll go over critical mindset shifts for your journey.
And then you’ll get specific actions to start on, which will immediately get you moving in the direction of your dreams.
And you won’t be left to go it alone!
Here’s what you get with this course:
6 videos – so you can get all the steps, strategies, and examples in easy-to-consume sections, go through everything at your own pace, and so you have it to come back to whenever you’d like.
Written course materials (as a PDF file) – with every step written down in Study Guides, for easy reference.
30 days of unlimited email support from me, starting the day you send your first email – for going over your specific situation, making a personalized plan together, reviewing your progress, receiving help and support through challenges, and answering any and all of your questions along the way.
4 1-Hour calls/Skype chats (1 per week) with me during your 30-day support period - to discuss your progress that week and give you even more personalized support.
A customized, written Action Plan – which will be specific to YOU, and will be your guide for making your current job serve you in achieving what you want most for your life.
Customized, written Challenges – to jump-start your progress and get you moving in the right direction immediately.
A 1-YEAR FULL REFUND GUARANTEE - so that if you aren't completely satisfied, you can request a refund at any point during your first year of the purchase, get a full refund, and still keep all of your course materials!
And here’s what this course will do for you:
This will change everything about how you experience your job.
This will turn your next workday – and every one after – into a mission for achieving any goal.
You’re going to go into work every day, knowing exactly what your job is for and where it’s taking you. You’re going to have a set plan, and specific actions each day, and you’ll follow your plan and do those actions while you’re getting your job done and getting paid.
This will give your job its own secret purpose, and it will be so satisfying. And so exciting!
This will make your work WORK FOR YOU.
WHAT IF I DON’T WANT TO STAY AT MY CURRENT JOB?
You don’t have to, and that’s just one thing that makes this process so fantastic.
You don’t have to stay there. This allows you to use your current job, until you’re ready to move on to the next one. It can even help you to get to the next one faster.
And when you get to your new job, you’ll already be ahead on your goals, you’ll start this process in your new job, and it will keep taking you forward.
This won’t be the last time I describe it this way, but the process is a staircase. You build it, you choose the destination, and you choose the direction, and you climb up, and up, and up. With every action and strategy and every new life and work development, you go up, up, up.
You do not have to stay put in your current job.
MY JOB IS IN THE WRONG INDUSTRY – WHAT IF THERE’S NOTHING ABOUT IT THAT WILL HELP WITH MY GOALS?
There are so many wonderful things about this process, but maybe this is the best one:
Your job – whatever it is, however you feel about it, and exactly AS-IS – has SO many relevant opportunities and advantages that can positively and directly impact your ability to achieve ANYTHING you want to.
It sounds crazy, right? Far-fetched? I dare you to try it and see.
You might be testing water in a lab and dream of giving tours on horse-back on a beach in paradise.
You might be trouble-shooting customers’ tech issues, and long to give life-saving aid to people in need.
I was an office manager and massage therapist who wanted to be a writer and start my own company in the coaching industry.
Your job can be in the opposite industry.
Your company can offer you ZERO in the way of benefits, or raises, or opportunities for advancing, or training and development.
Your boss can be a jerk who only looks out for himself.
The environment you work in can be selfish, stressful, and toxic.
And you can take what you need ANYWAY.
You don’t have to wait for the stars to align. You don’t have to wait on your company, or your boss, or the right job to fall in your lap.
There are so many opportunities and advantages AT THIS ONE, and you just need to know what they are and how to take them.
I’M BUSY AND LIMITED ON TIME. WHAT WILL THIS COURSE REQUIRE OF ME?
All the videos and course materials are given at once, which allows you to go at your own pace, and with the time you have.
To make the course even more convenient for you, the month of email support starts when you are ready to start it. You decide when to send your first email to start your support, and that’s when you and I will start working together.
And if you need to put your support on hold after it’s begun, just let me know then, and we’ll hold the rest of your time for as long as you need.
And that’s not all.
The beauty of this process is that it uses and leverages the time you’re already spending at work. You’ll be doing the job you were hired to do, you’ll be getting paid at that job, and you’ll be doing this process at the same time.
The parts of the process that you do outside of work will actually GIVE YOUR TIME BACK TO YOU. How much of your life do you spend on things that don’t get you any closer to the life you want? What dreams and goals are getting put off, because your time is so taken up by other things? We’ll fix that together.
IS THERE A DEADLINE FOR BUYING THIS?
Nope! It’s here when you’re ready to take it.
But here are some reasons you might not want to wait to get started:
1. The moment you start this, you’ll stop putting your dreams on the back-burner. Your job will stop being something that gets in the way of your goals. You’ll stop going into work and putting your own goals on hold while you work on your boss’s. When you invest in this, I promise, I will personally invest in you and your results. I will work with you to make this the moment your life starts becoming what YOU want it to be, and we’ll turn your job into a vehicle to your dreams.
2. Starting this process will end the Sunday Night Blues for you. It has a fantastic side-effect, of giving you real happiness and fulfillment in your current job – no matter how you felt about the job before. It doesn’t mean you’ll stay there, but while you’re there, you’ll have energy, cheer, purpose, satisfaction. Your coworkers might start to ask you how you can be so happy all the time (like mine did!). You’ll know exactly what you go to work for, and it won’t be what your boss thinks you’re there for.
3. The course is currently being sold at half the regular price, while the course for STEP 2 is being finalized. As soon as STEP 2 is ready to launch, the rate for this one will increase significantly. Don’t miss out on the chance to get started for such a deep discount!
WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
If you want to transform your experience at your current job, transform the results you’re getting from your current job, take control of your life’s direction, and use your work to achieve your wildest dreams – this course is for you.
This course is NOT for:
Anyone who is completely satisfied with their current status. This process requires you to TAKE ACTION, MAKE CHANGES, and SEE THINGS IN A NEW WAY, and you aren’t going to want to do that if you’re fine with things the way they are. That doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with you – you just might already be living life exactly the way you want to.
Anyone not willing to take action. No matter how much you want to achieve your goals, or how much you long for a certain lifestyle, or experiences – consuming the information in the course and then taking no action… won’t help you. It’d be like mapping out a road trip that you never take.
Anyone who wants ANYONE else to be responsible for their results. The wonderful news about this process, is that it’s all up to YOU, and that means YOU are in the driver’s seat and YOU are responsible for your results. That means you don’t have to wait for the Universe, or your company, or your boss, or your clients, or your coworkers, or for anyone or anything else to clear a path for you and deliver you your dreams. But I know that’s not going to sit well with everyone. If it’s not the type of thing you want to hear, this course probably isn’t for you.
Anyone who expects it to be easy. We’ve all heard some variation of the phrase, “it isn’t easy but it’s worth it,” and that applies to this process. It IS fun, and satisfying, and exciting, and energizing, and fulfilling, and joyful. But it’s not easy. You’ll be following a very specific action plan, and making purposeful choices and changes, and you might not be in the mood for it every day. You might want to sit on the couch and wait for Lady Luck to drop an opportunity from the air-conditioning vent. Be ready for it to be an effort, or it might not be for you.
WHAT MAKES THIS COURSE DIFFERENT?
It revolutionizes goal-achievement. It’s a new way to approach work, and a new way to work.
So many of us believe that it takes a certain degree, or career path, or choosing the “right” kind of job the first time, to shape our lives to our desires.
So many of us believe myths like, “If you hate your job, you’ll be miserable until you quit. Your only option is to quit now.” Or, “You’re in a dead-end job if [you aren’t getting certain things, or enough of certain things].” Or “Your experience at work depends on the company you’re in.” And we’re left feeling bitter, ashamed, resentful, helpless and hopeless.
Way too many of us have lived our lives by these beliefs. Way too many people who wanted to help and make a positive difference, have unknowingly shared and spread these beliefs.
And millions of people have believed the myths, and have put decades of their lives into something that could have been their biggest advantage and opportunity. And they never realized it.
Well, no more.
It’s time to get to the truth, and it’s time for something new.
Popular advice will still tell you that the solution is to quit this job and “find the right one”. It will tell you that this job and your dreams have nothing in common, so this job has nothing for you. It will tell you that you’re a victim of your company, and you’ll be held back and held down as long as you’re there.
Popular advice will leave you waiting, and wondering what you can do in the meantime.
Popular advice will leave so many people without answers.
Let’s be done with the popular advice!
I’ll show you that even if you hate your current job, you can be happy and fulfilled there, until the day you can leave it.
I’ll show you that you are NOT in a dead-end job; there is an exit, and it leads to whatever you use this one to prepare for.
I’ll show you that your experience at your job depends on YOU, and anything good that your company happens to throw in is just a bonus.
I’ll show you that you are NOT helpless. That you do NOT have to wait around. That you can take whatever you have and use that, and get what you need from it.
This new way to work is NOT the same old business practices, or ideas, or beliefs. It’s NOT employees vs. the company, or the company vs. the employees. It’s NOT demanding what we don’t have and getting bitter when it’s not given to us.
This new way to work is about creating a new way to get better results. It’s about connecting with and understanding others. And it’s about using whatever we have to get what we want.
I’ll teach you how to work this way with a step-by-step process, that not only transforms your experience at your job, but transforms your results in life and with achieving your goals.
WHAT IF I’M HAPPY AT MY JOB?
That’s great – and you can still use it!
Whether you want to leave this job, or you love it and want to stay, this course will help you to maximize your returns there, and make it give you even more of what you want for your life. This process can even help you to qualify for advancements within the company faster, or to tailor your current position to make it serve you even more.
YOU TALK ABOUT “TAKING FROM”, AND “TAKING ADVANTAGE” OF YOUR JOB – COULD I GET IN TROUBLE/FIRED?
Absolutely not!
Another fantastic thing about this process, is that it BENEFITS everyone you work with, and everyone you work for.
When you start the process of using your job to get what you want for your life, it will benefit your boss, your company, your coworkers, and your clients.
They will LOVE having you there; they will LOVE working with you.
It’s all for you, and it benefits them too.
HOW DO I USE MY JOB TO GET WHAT I WANT, IF I’M NOT EVEN SURE ABOUT WHAT I WANT?
Don’t worry – lasering-in on exactly what you want for your life is the first part of the process, and I will personally walk through it with you until you’re crystal-clear.
Of course, what we want is always changing in some way, as we go through life and experience new things (for example, I used to really want to live in a certain city, and when I moved there and lived a while, I realized I loved it, but it didn’t feel like a “forever” home setting).
And since that’s the case, all you have to know is how you feel now, so you can move down that path, and this process will help you to transition as your desires evolve.
WILL I GET TO KEEP THE COURSE MATERIALS?
Yes!
All course materials (including the videos, study guides, and your written, customized Action Plan and Challenges) are yours to keep, so you can keep coming back to them again and again, and keep achieving more goals with your work.

DO I HAVE TO BE AN EMPLOYEE? WHAT IF I OWN A COMPANY?
You can use that work in the same way! This process will work for you whether you work as an employee, or as the owner of a business.
CAN I PURCHASE THIS COURSE FOR MY EMPLOYEES?
Yes! Email me to learn more about the group rates, and the advantages of investing in your employees’ growth with this course.
I'M NOT SURE IF I'M READY FOR THE FULL COURSE. IS THERE AN OPTION TO JUST GET THE COURSE VIDEOS?
Yes! You'll see an option on the Resources page that lets you purchase just the videos. When you choose that, you'll be sent a PDF file with links to each of the 6 videos, so you can watch them at your pace and convenience, take action on the strategies in them, and come back to the videos for reference as often as you'd like.
This option is a great way for you to get started now, and when you're ready to dive in to the full course with me in the future, I'll be here!
