Why Aren’t There More American Day Laborers, Doctors, Engineers and Textile Workers?
By: Harrison Barnes


Employment Research Institute's Chief Executive Officer, A. Harrison Barnes, in a webinar discussed that in order to succeed you need to provide more value than you receive.

According to Harrison your rewards will be in direct proportion to the value you provide. This law of economics controls a great deal of what happens in the world. And yet people ignore this most basic law of economics. The result of ignoring the law is instant to gradual failure. In your career if you are providing more value than you receive you will probably have a very good career.

There are many professions in many major cities of the United States where Americans are not hired. That is because they are not willing to work hard. They do not have the motivation to do what it takes. If you do not have the motivation to do what it takes then you are not going to get to where you want to go. Most Americans who are talented enough to become doctors do not become doctors because they are not willing to work incredibly hard to become doctors. People from other countries are willing to do what it takes; they believe that they need to work hard in order to get ahead. They feel they need to produce more than they earn.

One of the most important rules of economics is simply that the economy will generally pay for the value that you provide. In order to advance in society you must respect and understand the law of economics.

The law of economics that is always operating in the background is that you always need to give more than you take. Many people at some point in their lives lose touch of this law and it always does them in. They do not put in the effort needed to really succeed.

Forbes Reports 151,352 Layoffs for January Itself; Employment Authority Proposes Alternative Job Search Approach

Pasadena, CA — According to a compilation by Forbes recently, there were 151,352 layoffs at America’s 500 largest public companies in the month of January. MORE


"There are always vacancies. Organizations are born, organizations expand, workers become restless, quit, change jobs, move, become ill long-term, or become handicapped, retire, or die. There are always jobs out there waiting to be filled. The fact that you can't find those jobs only means the vacancy hasn't been advertised, or you're not using the right method to find it. When the Internet or job-postings, or agencies, or ads, or resumes, don't work, there are other ways of turning up the job you want. So, if you're coming up 'empty,' you need to change the search method you've been using. ... To speed up your search for one of the jobs that are out there, go after many different organizations, instead of just one or two."
