The greatest sales woman in the world today doesn’t mind if you call her a girl. That’s because Markita Andrews made more than $80,000 by selling cookies when she was 13 years old.

Andrews and her mother shared a dream of traveling around the world. Once while reading a magazine ad, Andrews found that the person who sold the most cookies could win a free trip for two around the world. She decided to give it a try.

To make her dream come true, Andrews went door to door every day after school and repeated, “Hi, I have a dream. I’m earning a trip around the world for my mom and me by selling cookies. ” Then she asked,” Would you like to buy one or two dozen boxes of cookies?”

Andrews kept asking for a whole year, no matter how heavily it was raining or snowing outside. Her hard work paid off. She sold 42,000 boxes of cookies that year and she won her trip around the world.

Andrews is no smarter than thousands of other people. The key to her success is that she has found the secret of selling: Ask, Ask, Ask! Many people fail before they even begin because they fail to ask for what they want.

It takes courage to ask for what you want. And , as Andrews has discovered, the more you ask, the easier ( and more fun) it gets.

There are different ways to store fish. One way to keep fish for future use is canning it. We’ll have this article describing, step by step, how to prepare dried fish.

Begin with fish that are out of the water. If the fish are small, leave their heads on. Cut off the heads if the fish are longer than twenty centimeters or weigh more than one hundred fifteen grams.

Now clean the freshly caught fish. Cut off the scales and cut open the stomach. Remove everything inside. Then wash the fish in clean water and fill salt into them.

Next, put the fish in a container with a solution (溶液) of three hundred grams of salt and one liter of water. This will remove the blood from the meat. Keep the fish in the saltwater for about thirty minutes. After that , wash them again in clean water.

Next, put the fish in a solution that has more salt in the water. The water should be salty enough so that the fish can float to the top. If the fish sink to the bottom of the container, add more salt to the water.

Cover the container with a clean piece of wood. Place a heavy stone on the wood to hold it down. Leave the fish there for about six hours.

After that, remove them from the saltwater and place them on a clean surface. Cover the fish with a clean piece of white cloth and let them dry.
