The document discusses how the author had both enjoyable and unpleasant jobs in the past. They particularly enjoyed working at a movie theater in high school where they would sell popcorn, drinks, and candy to crowds of people before movies started. However, they disliked a job as a telemarketer where they had to memorize scripts and automatically dial people. The author argues that every person has valuable stories and perspectives to share, and that through opening people up in conversation one can gain a wealth of information and stories like mining for gold. They advocate using stories within conversations as an easy way to covertly slip ideas into others' minds.

1. Gold Is Everywhere

2. I've had a lot of crappy jobs in my life.

3. And some pretty awesome ones.

4. One of my favorites was when I
worked at a movie theater in high
school.

5. Lots of people my age, face paced, got
to meet people when they were in a
good mood.

6. The best part was when I'd load up a
car with popcorn, drinks and candy
and push it into a packed theater a few
minutes before the movie started.

7. I would push the cart up and down the
aisles and holler out like an old school
pitchman.

8. And I almost ALWAYS sold out.

9. Other jobs were horrible.

10. The worse was when I was a
telemarketer.

11. They had us memorize a script. And
hooked us up to an automatic dialing
computer.

12. We would see the person's name a
split second after they answered.

13. And spit out the memorized pitch.

14. If they hung up, the computer would
automatically dial another line.

15. It was incredibly BORING.

16. The only fun part was when somebody
got ultra pissed and went off into a
well spoken tirade against
telemarketers.

17. THAT part was pretty entertaining!

18. Funny thing was, if I agreed with
everything they said, while they were
yelling at me, they actually thanked
me when they were done.

19. It's easy to fall into a rut, and hear the
same things and say the same things
day in and day out.

20. So when we finally unleash how we
REALLY feel, even if it's anger, it feels
pretty good to get some sympathy and
understanding.

21. Every single person you run across has
all kinds of things they'd LOVE to
express.

22. But most are too shy, and nobody ever
asks.

23. So they never do.

24. Which is why there is a GOLD MINE
inside pretty much every person you
come across.

25. Even if you're just looking to kill time
while waiting for the bus, people can
provide enormous value.

26. Everybody's got a story. Everybody's
got a different perspective.

27. All you've got to do is practice
"opening them up."

28. Because inside, there is TREASURE.

29. And the more people you talk to, the
more stories you'll have.

30. The EASIEST way to use Covert
Hypnosis to slip ideas into people's
minds is through stories.

31. "Hey, that's pretty cool, that reminds
me of this girl I was talking to the
other day at the bus stop..."

32. And then launch into several nested
loops, within which you can layer all
kinds of language technology.

33. Most people go through life hoping to
AVOID interacting with others.

34. But once you realize that OTHER
PEOPLE are your greatest resource,
you'll realize the HUGE gold mine
that's around you.

35. All the time!
