First Job.

Ok, you start the course, you are very happy, you are crazy to get your first job, live a scuba diver life, knowing people, places, dive on the world, nothing stop you…I will be intructor and it is my duty not discourage you and I will not do this, I will not deceive you, but, I will say to you calm and keep the focus on your studies and your training, and then do you worry about where you choose will work and live. I don´t will say to you don´t dream…Dream and dream very high…The dream will keep you in the way to success, dream with your goals and keep in your mind how you will achieve, think in ways, in obstacles, how you will win the rocks on the way and thinkin your victory…But never let it take your concentration of studies. I will tell you for a personal experience…Two weeks ago I was looking for places to work in Cairns, Australia. I found fantastics places and selected many resorts to send emails.

I sending emails to all places speaking about employment.

Spent a few days, no answer… Spent More days and I got one Answer talking no vacancy. And after a while, someone answered me saying that there was no vacancy. I was half way with the way things discredited…

Then I begin note somethings:

First:

An Instructor recon if you are instructor or not.

These people are experienced, Use terminologies that are themselves of the area in which they work, Has its ways of speak and express, it is difficult deceive anyone, even by mail.

Second:

To you be instructor, you must have a registred number by PADI.

Third and must important:

You have a dive logs, hours of work(with divemaster), you must have describe your experience to the place of job, never lie, Because it can harm your career.

Fourth:

Never try to deceive anyone, or you go to the first item.

Fifth:

With all items of this list your result is:

Anyone will answer to you, you will find that there is no work and will discourage you. You will end up losing hours of study and losing the will to study to be discouraged and lose time is a bad thing, because remember: One day without doing what is necessary means another day away from your goal

So forget that run, keep calm and focus on their study in dives and you will learn all the time.

I know all it, i decided venture to know more and more about work with dive, and i lost time selecting places, send emails and etc…

Leave this to after, keep your concentration in your preparation, the best employment is result of his preparation.

Remember, learn languages, be at least fluent in Spanish and English or the language of the place where you want to work.

Begin of the Career and Short Money…

For the cultural differences and values this text is not same of the version in portuguese.
But I tried to keep the main idea, which is to stay connected to not lose money at the time of purchase of equipment.

The great problem for all divers in the world with certainty is the high price of the equipment.
Dives, equipments, all is more expansive, if you don´t find, Will spend more money.
If an equipment is used to dive, he is more expansive than the orders, for example: We have cable protector to octopus, this protectors are more expansive because are specific to dive, if the cable protector To be replaced by protectors specific to cable P.C (they are resistent too), because they are for computers, with certainty the price is lower.

Search, search and search, the prices change place to place.
If an place the product price is X, in another place the price is Y and in another is Z, search in many places after you purchase the product. Have certainty, that it is the best price.

If you have a friend living in Europe, good for you, because many equipments produced there and the price is very different…Buy and ask him to bring to you.

Visit the Amazon. www.amazon.com.
Amazon are very famous site to buy things.
The virtual store have a different and good prices.

Thats it guys, if ou have any questions please send email for me, ok ?
Thanks, bye bye…

Pursuit of the excellence…

You all know, the instructor on the true is one leadership, this is the difference of the instructor to the people.
You cant said me, as well ? The instructor know more the people, this is a difference!
His mistake, we do not know the people and if the instructor know more the people, he do not better in nothing, he only had the opportunity learning things before.
So, i speak all to you know, dive instructors must be prepared with leaders to a make the difference. I believe that if you has not a good leader preparation, may have problems with the credibility of your team and execution of tasks.
Simple?? But we have lot to learning.
Its similar to sports, on the volleyball, we have Bernardinho (i am a fan)that led Brazil to a higher positions And still does not leave his team discourage and continue win and win, more and more. We have many good coaches in the world, but only Bernardinho has for long time the hight performance of your team, the difference ?
He prepared to be leader.

Today with student, I believe the instructors must have “felling” and know how do to the student learning more and more fast, to the execution is always better. The main is, if the instructor getting move to the student a little bit of the of the profession, this student will be motivation to go ahead, looking for a better results.

A good training is read the books whites by success people…
Because everybody have a choice, make yours.

The Books:
Transformando suór em ouro (Maybe “Turning sweat into gold” in english) Bernardinho
I cant accept not tryng – Michael Jordan
Building a life – Roberto Justus

Searching more, read and Leave their oxygen tanks full of desire, willingness and goals…
Pursuit of the excellence…
