John Chernesky, Princess Cruises

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4/5″][vc_column_text]ABOUT: John Chernesky takes himself too seriously – said no one ever! A proud military brat, John joined Princess out of first grade and rode his talent for making somewhat mediocre coffee all the way to becoming Sr. Vice President of Sales and Trade Marketing. During that 26-year span at Princess, John also worked in hotel operations, entertainment, onboard revenue and even helped coordinate the design development for over a dozen ships. John is married and the father of twin boys and often shares personal stories of his family’s travel escapades on his facebook page to drive home the amazing vacation experience Princess offers to its guests, especially families and groups. John believes in the power of video and laughter to make his point and if you like him at facebook.com/PrincessVPsales, you’ll understand why.

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”4/5″][vc_column_text]The choice is yours. The only three things that can result from meeting somebody for the first time are (1) They can feel better having met you; (2) They can feel worse having met you; (3) They can feel neutral having met you.
Choice two is rarely the case and choice three is the norm. But it is choice one that should be your focus. You want to be the one who has people saying to themselves, “Finally, a fun and energetic person who appears to like what they do and enjoys doing it.”
It has been said that everybody has the ability to “brighten up a room.” Unfortunately, many people brighten it up once they leave the room.
Starting today, be that much needed “breath of fresh air.” Put that bounce back in your step and make others feel better having met you. Be the “light switch” that brings life to the party. Start by being genuinely interested in others.
